Welcome to YMBAS club and we are happy to answer your queries.
Highlights - Significant Industry and leadership experience, International Work Ex, Strong Extracurriculars, Leadership opportunities demonstrated
Focus Areas - GMAT Score, Your Post MBA objectives
Since you have significant work experience, your essays should bring out the different and rich aspects of professional growth opportunities that you had since this would be a more recent indicator of your performance.
1. Overall this a good profile however your applicant pool is also likely to have higher GMAT and academic scores. It would be useful to put effort in how you make your profile stand out from an over represented applicant pool (IT + Engineering), which should come out in your essays.
2. There are few programmes for 1 year MBA in US, EU but in India your options are limited to ISB, ISB Exec, IIM Exec programmes. For a more detailed discussion, you can reach out to us.
3. If you manage a score of 680 or higher, we would recommend to submit your application unless you have sufficient time for a retake or planning to apply in R2. We have helped students with similar score to get through the programme of their choice.
All the best and reach out to us (link in signature) if you need any support with your application.
