Hi abinash73,
Thank you for reaching out with your profile. It seems like you have a good foundation for a deferred application -- a strong GPA (though you shouldn't need to convert it), a strong GMAT score, internships with large organizations, and a full-time offer. I think the environmental focus should help you too. I also really like your startup experience and how you can show leadership and impact there. Hopefully, you have some other campus activities and awards/honors, as those can be quite important to round out your profile.
All this said, deferred programs are extremely competitive. Even when I see candidates with excellent profiles, it's still very challenging to predict their chances. I would give a few select programs a shot and if it doesn't work out, then reapply in a few years. I've seen many deferred candidates go on to reapply and be successful.
Also, you should check out our free guide to deferred programs here: https://shop.mbamission.com/products/th ... ions-guide
Hope that helps!
Kate

Hi,
You have a decent profile and have checked most of the boxes required for a successful admit - Great GMAT score, decent academic score, good internship experience, startup founder. This all looks great on paper. My suggestion would be to tie them all up together into a coherent story that shows your motivation and career plans. Your goals need to be aligned with the B-school's offerings. It would be good to discuss with an alumni member or admissions expert to understand how to pitch your candidacy for the programs.
That said, you can also look into these programs as well:
Yale Silver Scholar's Program
Darden Future Year Scholar's Program
MIT Sloan Early Admission
Booth Scholars Program
You can now find all the free resources for admissions on the Website or try the free tools below for a self-evaluation:
