Dear concern,

I scored 680 ( Q49 , V 34 ) , in GMAT

I am a hardcore sales and marketing professional with over 7 years experience (No international experience ) (Non IT sales & Individual Contribution ), what are my chances of securing a management seat at the top IIMs ,

Please share your valuable opinion

Hello igtroy123123 , hope you are well

With 7 years of work experience, your chances look good. For IIM A a 700+ score would have proved more favorable, but that is not to say that you cannot compensate for it by focusing on your differentiated profile in your application, MBA resume, and interviews.

Focus on highlighting the most unique aspects of your profile - work experiences / personal experiences to increase the odds of success. Reflect on the experiences where you took initiatives to resolve a conflict within teams, motivated co-workers and subordinates to expedite projects, and generated impact on business in terms of $$ through cost savings or revenue generation. B schools are big on community and diversity initiatives. Experiences, where you participated in community work, would show the strength of your character.

Here are some tips

Also, deliberate well on your post-MBA goals to show maturity in decision-making. You can refer to this write-up

If you wish to seek professional guidance on creating an applications strategy do reach out.


Best wishes

You've not mentioned your academic background.

With a good application, chances of interview definitely exist. Good application comprises articulation of your experience, accomplishments, career choices, career goals, and institute fitment.

Just last year, one of our candidates with a similar score, got thru IIMB.

All the best.

Are you able to determine the average GMAT scores for those schools?
