Hello,
I wrote my GMAT today. Scored a 670 (Q:48 and V:34).
25 year old, Female
working in Electrical sector.
GPA: 7.11
Work Experience:
1.5 years in a power electronic company.
Worked in the Solar Division for a year after which I was shifted to the Marketing Communications division.
The first year I was involved in supporting the Sales team with their technical requirements. I also met a few customers.
My work in the MarCom division involved creation of marketing collaterals- Brochures, Manuals, Website, Videos. Also creation of presentations for the technical team.
Currently I'm working with a reputed American MNC. I am into the oil and gas division.
I am an application engineer here. I also support in Internal sales activities. We scope technical solutions for major EPC clients. Besides, my job also involves client interactions at least over phone to close any technical queries.
12th Grade: 92.5%
Was the Head girl for my school
10th Grade: 89.4%.
That's about me.
Can you please evaluate my profile?
My dream schools would be Notre Dame & SMU.
I am interested in General Management with a specialization in Finance.
I would like to know if the following schools are Safe or Moderate:
1) University of Arizona, Eller
2) Babson Olin
3) Katz- Pittzburgh
4) Rutgers
Any suggestions for Safe schools?

Hello there!
Great to hear from you!
So first of all, I think for your score, you have chosen a good school list. I think though that for you, unless you have a really good reason, I would highly suggest you wait until next year to apply.
Why?
1. Your work experience is very low, esp. for someone from your industry (the people who matriculate with 3 years experience tend to come from consulting or banking)
2. we are close to round 2 deadlines
3. This will give you a chance to improve your GMAT
4, This will give you a chance to improve your profile (like by doing more volunteer work, taking on more ECs etc)
Other than that, since you are in O & G, I'd suggest applying to Rice as well, which has an awesome program!
I hope this helps,
And feel free to write back with any additional questions,
Best,
Jon Frank

Hi Jon,
I think my post has been misleading.
I have a work experience of nearly 42 months to date, handling diverse profiles from Solar Marketing to Marketing Communications with my first employer. Currently I'm working as an Application engineer in the oil and gas division of an American company.
Do you still think the work experience is low?
Also would Rice university count as Safe or moderate?

Yes, Rice is moderate, but overall with your school list I feel like you should be able to pull an admit with good applications.
