Thank you for sharing your profile @MegaCoconut ! 6 years in tech is the sweet spot for both IE and IESE (they like candidates with professional depth who can contribute immediately). A GRE score of 329 is a good quantitative/verbal signal. If you can show measurable impact (product metrics, revenue, cost, or efficiency improvements, team leadership), you’ll match what these programs look for in mid-career tech applicants.

You’ll need to answer (clearly): Why MBA now? (with 6 years, explain why a full-time MBA is required for the next step). Why IE / IESE specifically? (name concrete resources, clubs, courses, and company access you’ll use). How will you convert the MBA into your target tech outcome? (internship, employers you’ll approach, location preference).

We would love to learn more about your academic background, extracurricular activities, professional experiences, and personal journey so we can offer a more tailored assessment of your profile and evaluate your chances at your target schools more accurately. Feel free to book a profile evaluation session.
