Hi i am a new member to gmatclub and learning the rules slowly, kindly help me with my stats and choice of B schools below.
GMAT - 680 - 700 expected
Unergrad Bachelor of commerce GPA - dont know??? though i got a 59.9% in my university. one of the toughest marking systems the topper ranges beween 65-69%.
Post grad - I have a 2 yrs full time post graduate programme in International Business (PGPIB) from a Top business school in India (ranked 20th by business magazines). Overall percentage - (65% top 20% of the class).
I have a strong command of English language.Other languages known are - Hindi (excellent), French (Basic), Arabic (Basic). Mathematics - little weak
The PGPIB diploma gave me a chance to enter the field of international business and travel a lot abroad, specifically the middle eastern countries. I have an experience of 4 years in marketing premium regional brands at a managerial level, Have 4 years of international exposure, have learnt and imbibed different cultures during this time frame and finally landed up with an offer in Dubai where i am currently working as marketing manager in a regional Marketing and distribution company.
The reason i did my PG is that in India it is difficult to start an international career after graduation u need a PG diploma, for me it was easier to move into companies which gave me a chance to travel based on my qualification, however now i feel that my core competency lies in marketing, the diploma i had was an international business focusing on all the aspects of international trrade not specializing in a particular field.
This has limited the scope of my career growth now and i am stuck up in middle level management, moreover i am not able to find opportunities in reputed MNCs as they require specialized people and with globalization on the flow your IB diploma does not matter to the corporates.
Hope that i am justified on my part. kindly give me ur advise.
Long term Goal: I aspire to move into management consultancy after graduation and start off on my own when the time is right and feel confident enough of advising others.
Another conflicting goal with which i keep confusing myself with is contributing something to the society, dont care about big bucks, would luv to start an NGO or some start up in a similiar capacity.
My choice:
1. Kellogg
2. INSEAD
3. Cornell
4. LBS
5. Duke Fuqua
6. Instituto de Empresa
7. Oxford - Said
8. Darden
9. Tuck
10. Michigan - Ross (if they accept diplomas equivalent to US educational standards)
My dream institute is Kellogg as my strengt lies in Marketing and i have a bend towards the subject theoritcally as well as practically, can you honestly advise me, what r my chances.
Also for my GPA should i take the score of my bachelors degree or 2 yrs PG diploma.
Thanks

Hi Paul to add more to my profile making it easier for u to reach a more accurate evaluation:
COMMUNITY SERVICE:
1. Was an active member of the team which sent from my boarding school for the rehabilitaion of earthquake havoced areas. We were working with the local authorities for weeks to support the survivours.
2.After my bachelors degree i joined my fathers transport business for a short time,6 months, we had farms in our hometown where nothing productive was being done so after consulting my dad we gave out our lands to the farmers livin in the vicinity to grow what ever they wanted, we organized the water supply + seeds etc, only for a small share of the produce after the harvest. Even after 5 years today the same method is being carried out and i was happy to provide extra support to these 10 families.
LEADERSHIP AND TEAM SKILLS:
1.) Led my school team at district level badminton championships.
2.) Active member of the Quizzing,debating societies and dramatics club at school. Partcipated in most of the sports events held.(medals and accolades won)
3.) Joined as export manager in my previous company, the company had no exports prior to my joining. With the help of my team who had also recently joined we opened a respectable 12 countries within a year for our products.
4.) Secured the third position in my PG for my International business (Business Start up) thesis.
5.) As i am into sales and marketing my job requires me to always work as a team with my partners in the form of ad agencies, distributors etc in diff countries, this has made me a complete team player and i enjoy my international exposure especially observing different cultures,lifestyles and just moving ahead.
Kindly evaluate my chances and areas to improve accordingly and also suggest additional Business schools.
Thanx
