IIM Ahmedabad for 2025 Intake Discussion (2 Year MBA Program)

Hi everyone,

I am interested in pursuing my MBA at IIM Ahmedabad for the 2025 Intake. I want to be prepared regarding my application for next cohort. I was assuming the next year deadlines would be somewhere in September. I started preparing for my GMAT recently. 

Background about me:

I moved to the U.S. when I was young. So, I completed my middle school, high school, and undergrad here in USA. In fact, I graduated with my undergraduate degree an year ago in December 2022. I started my first job as a data professional in Jan 2023. So, it has been an year since I started working and it will be bit more than 2 years when I enroll next year in 2025.

High School GPA: 
- Cumulative GPA Weighted: 4.2879 / 4.5

It is true that I can pursue my MBA in the US. However, I grew up here. I want more global exposure. I want to learn about my roots and culuture. I want to learn from the Indian Business Schools to gain more exposure as my bachelors was BSBA.

I am not an American Citizen as I was born in India. However, I am a permanent resident in the US. 

How does my profile look? Anyone had similar background who grew up in the US and went back to India to pursue MBA or higher education? How can I make my profile stronger? What about my GMAT score? Any strategies? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. 

I was looking at the IIM A Overseas Website and was not sure how to calculate the Rating Scores for 10th and 12th grades.



Any help would mean a lot.
