Profile Evaluation + GMAT Target - ISB PGP YL R1 2027
Hi everyone, looking for an honest assessment of my profile and a realistic GMAT target for ISB PGP Young Leaders, Round 1, 2027 intake.
Academics
Class XII (Commerce): 90% - SAI International School, Bhubaneswar
BBA CGPA: 6.5 - Symbiosis Centre for Management Studies (SCMS), Pune | Dual Specialisation: Marketing Management & Accounting and Finance | 2024
Work Experience: ~ 1 year at application for now
Business Development Associate, Nirman (social enterprise) - 1 year | B2B sales, pipeline management
Growth & GTM Intern, Founder's Office, Sahaja Organics - 2 months | Q-commerce launch, SEO, GTM
Finance Intern, Bajaj Allianz Life - 2 months
Extracurriculars
McKinsey Forward Program - Early Bird Fellow (2026)
Harvard HPAIR Asia Conference '24 - 260 selected from 40,000+
Millennium Fellow & Global Admissions Committee, MCN - selected from 44,000+ across 119 nations
UN Academic Impact - Campus Director, 1 of 600 from 44,000+ applicants; led 20 member team
Published working paper - University of Waterloo & IIT Kharagpur collaboration
Directed and edited a documentary - Thompson Rivers University & University of Waterloo collaboration
Additional Director, IT & Media - Unwind (25,000+ attendee event)
Inter-State Talent Search Examination - Winner
Personal: Completed a 400km brevet
GMAT: Yet to appear
Post-MBA Goal: Management consulting
My questions:
What GMAT score do I realistically need to offset a 6.5 CGPA for ISB PGP YL?
Is my extracurricular profile strong enough to compensate for the low GPA?
Any advice on positioning the profile for consulting, given limited brand-name work experience?
Honest feedback welcome. Thanks in advance.
