Hi all, I gave my GMAT today and scored a
610, Q47 V28 IR 3. Deeply disappointed in myself. I had prepared rigorously from 1st November onwards. My initial
MGMAT score was 540, V32 Q33. Thanks to GMAT club, I was able to improve my score from Q33 to Q47. However, my target score for this attempt was 650-670. This is just a brief background, now I need all your help in determining whether I should apply to B-schools or not.
Target B-schools :
1st Pref - ISB Hyderabad/Mohali
2nd Pref - INSEAD, IE Business School, EDHEC
This is my present profile as of now:
Work experience 3.8 years
-
Associate in one of the top global investment banks - Working presently in business intelligence and engineering (Transitioned from ops based role to a tech and data analytics based role)
- Saved over 150 hours of work through my efforts in the same space.
- Consistently been a top performer through out my career.
Educational qualification
- Certified Alteryx Designer
- Passed
CFA level 2 - GPA 3.0 from Christ University, Bangalore, India
- Bachelors in business management, majored in Finance
- 75% in my class 12th Board examinations (CBSE Board)
Leadership roles
- President of my corporate toastmaster club.
- Backstage head for college production house.
Apart from this my interests lie in automation, robotics and fintech. I want to do MBA to rebrand myself as a fintech person. My hobbies include home automation projects, gaming etc.
Honestly, guys I feel defeated. I know I am going to get up dust myself and get a better score, atleast a 100 point improvement, but as of now, I really need to understand what should I do? Some people feel that I have a good profile and I should go ahead and apply, others are telling me my probability of acceptance is less than .1
I really could use some help and motivation!
Thank you in advance
