I too heared the same. But what is your Current package and post-mba expected package. Their last year average package is 13 lakhs. So think it.

Hi biplab81,

Looking at your years of work experience(working in different roles), I like to suggest you apply SP Jain, XLRI and some IIM's(not IIM A, B, C). Even Great lakes have a good record in placing students in tech consulting role but CTC would not be up to expectation if you're current CTC is more than 15L.

You can also try our Chances of B School selector tool to gauge your chances for schools to fit your current profile.

Dear All,

I took the GMAT test today and got 610 ( Q48 V25 ). I have 8 (4+ years of Managerial Role & 3+ years of SAP Consultant Role) years of work Experience in IT Industry. Which all Indian Colleges I can apply ?

Regards,
Biplab

Dear biplab81,

A 610 on the GMAT is on the lower side; hence, we would suggest a re-take.

Should you wish to proceed with your current score, you could look at the lower ranked IIMs, SP Jain, XLRI; however, you will need to deliberate upon the placement packages from these schools once you graduate as they may not match your existing CTC.

All the best!

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I am currently stuck in my job life. Nothing great happening. Neither i am leaning much nor i am growing as per the market standards. Even though i have 8yrs of work-ex i have a package of 9.5L because i never switched to another company. Because you guys suggest me take one more shot at GMAT i will plan in next 45 days again. I will start preparing for IIMs XLRI and GLIM and side by side i will take another attempt.

Hi All. I took the retest and scored the same 610 on GMAT. I don't have patience to retake anymore. Work pressure is high. I am unable to concentrate completely. I would like to go ahead with my score. Please help me selecting Indian colleges and also the important dates if any. Thanks in advance.
