Hi All,
I am looking for some guidance to understand which top US/Europe Business Schools (or any other top International Business School) I can "realistically" target during 2024 admissions process at a GMAT score of 710 (GMAT Official), and with the below profile -
1. Software Engineer (Indian Male)
2. Years of Professional Experience in Fintech - 4 yrs
3. Field of MBA targetting - Technology/Finance
To be very honest my profile is not that diverse as many expect an engineer candidate applying for MBA has to have, hence I want true and honest answers for the schools which I can target (and where do those schools rank globally).
Please let me know in case you need any other detail. Looking forward to a fruitful conversation 🙂
Few pointers around my profile -
1. I am currently a Software Engineer (Tech) in a UK based Banking group - NatWest Group (formerly Royal Bank of Scotland), and have been working in the company for past 4 yrs. I received a promotion last year which came with a few leadership responsibilities as well. I am primarily aiming to be a Program Manager in Tech sector post my MBA.
2. Score : 710 (FYI - I have given 3 attempst with Score 2 and 3 both 710, and within the two this one is better in terms of IR and Q, the other 710 had a better V but a weaker Q, IR)
Q : 50
V : 35
IR : 7
AWA : 5
3. Although I am not much aware of what constitutes as a extra curricular when it comes to MBA admits (tried finding online abt it, but nothing too conclusive, everything was too subjective). But few activities I have been part of are -
a) Undergrad Table Tennis and Volleyball College team
b) OffSite CSR activity - Teaching underpriv children in a week long program
c) Organized a slam poetry event during the final year of College
My realistic target is ofcourse ISB, Hyd. But really want to grab a good International School like UCLA. Please comment abt your opinion of chances for an UC colleges as well (UCLA etc..) and ISB, Hyd as well. And any other college besides them that I can target, with my set of profile.
