Hi Robbie,

Really appreciate you're help to gmatclubbers!

Age:31
Country: Indian
Status: Married
Languages: English, Hindi
Background: Electrical Engineer

Degree:
• Bachelor in Electrical Engineering from state college
( GPA 3.5/5.0 ~69% )

Experience: 10 Years . Totally into Investment bank IT, various functions in capital markets. Understand IB functioning.
• 1 year Engineer Trainee Industrial Automation Service provider
• 6 year in one of largest Indian Software services company , managed onsite team for various IB clients. Resigned as Asst. Consultant
• 3 years (current) managing IT deliveries for Middle office, APAC. Largest Swiss Bank

Extracurricular Activities: Had accident at 8 because of which nearly lost an eye. So, had a tough childhood owing to the fragile physical condition. However, I started getting better since I started in engineering college.
No constant participation though some in college and some in office.

International Exposure: India - 5 years
Tokyo - 4.5 years
Singapore - currently

GMAT1: 620 Q47 V28
GMAT2: 680 Q45 V37

Target Schools:
• London Business School
• INSEAD
• Kellogg
• Ross
• Chicago

INSEAD and LBS are my main targets. Would appreciate if you could shed some light on my chances - post mba I wish to be in Operations (running business) or PE/VC (creating business), depends on how things unfold during the course.
Am not sure but should i retake GMAT ? Aim for 720+, I think i can just that my hectic office schedule and 2 relocation in last 1.5 year keep me from concentrating. But would be stable now.

Many Thanks'

Your stats don't make you a strong candidate at your target schools as those are competitive schools. If you could raise your GMAT to the 720-740 range, that'd be optimal.
