Hello!
I am an Mechanical Engineering graduate (class of 2014), from PEC University of Technology, India. I have a rather low GPA of 7.2/10 (2.88/4), and a combined work experience of about 2 years. Mostly, I have worked in local startups and continue to work in one as of now. I had fair amount of international exposure during my college, having been associated with AIESEC and represented my college, as part of a 7 member team, at an engineering event in Hungary.
GMAT break down-
GMAT Score: 770
Quant: 50
Verbal: 46
AWA: 6
IR: 8
So far, I have not decided on any particular college(s) or specialization. My primary concern with any application is the overall cost of the program. Though, I have sent my scores to the following colleges (as 5 free ones that we get with the GMAT exam):
HEC Paris
UCLA Anderson
University of St. Gallen (Masters in Management)
INSEAD
MIT Sloan
I am considering working for another year to add to my WE, in order to stand a better chance at securing a scholarship. But my primary objective from any MBA/Masters programme would not be to secure a high paying consulting/finance job, but rather to learn more, have a great network, and eventually run my own business.
Please note: presently, I do not think I can afford any of the full-time MBA programmes without adequate scholarships/funding avenues
I'd be thankful for any suggestions/discussions this post sparks.

Hi krtibdewal,
First off, a 770/Q50 is an outstanding score (it's right around the 99th percentile overall), so you can apply to any Business Schools that interest you. You're ultimately asking Admissions questions though, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:
