MBA recommendation letters are one of the most misunderstood parts of the application process. Many applicants focus on choosing the most senior recommender — when what actually matters is specificity, credibility, and examples of impact.

There's not a lot of info to go on here; much of a profile review by us or by a program such as ISB will come from more detail of your work and your resume and accomplishments... examples of leadership are key for example, especially for an EMBA. Management experience is a plus and teamwork/collaboration skills. Feel free to do a resume submission for a more detailed discuss if interested, at www.mbamission.com/consult. I'm not sure I'm following your meaning of 'not on company roll' fyi.

So it sounds like you have solid quantitative and analytical skills. The more you can demonstrate the teamwork and interpersonal skills, along with leadership, the better your chances would be. GMAT is ok but if you feel you could improve, you could consider giving it another try as there's no real down side to doing so. Be sure you focus a lot on how your post-MBA goals have driven your decision to apply, and to this school, and at this point in your career. Show a strong knowledge of the program and passion for it. It may be a bit of a reach but worth a shot.
Please review my profile for the ISB 2020 batch admissions:
X- 86%
XII- 77%
B.Tech (Civil)- 7.63 CGPA from a top 5 National Institute of Technology
Workex- 31 months till date (Will be around 40 months when I am planning to apply) in a 'Special Purpose Vehicle' of the Government of India and State Government. I have worked in the tendering section of a couple of public transportation projects (Managed by the same company) worth US$ 3 Billion (INR 20,000 Cr.) in total. My role includes preparation of tender document from techno-commercial-legal point of view, co-ordination with media houses for wide publicity of invitation of bids, co-ordination with international funding agencies such as EIB, AFD, World Bank, etc. for their NOC to the invitation of bids, represent the government client in the Pre-Bid meetings, replying to individual queries, evaluation of bids received and co-ordination with all the stakeholders till final award of work. I was personally involved in all these activities for 5-6 tenders of US$ 60 Million (INR 400 Cr.) each apart from a few dozen smaller tenders. I was also entrusted with managing a Supreme Court case on behalf of my company in a US$ 65 Million (INR 500 Cr.) litigation where we were represented by the Ex-Finance Minister of the country (As an attorney) which we eventually won. I also got a couple of back to back promotions in the organization and working at managerial position right now.
Extra Curriculars-
Wrote fictional stories on a famous website. One of these stories was within the top 3 of the genre for a long time.
Played guitar in a couple of events.
Participated in street play event in college and won second prize.
Organised a business event in college.
Co curriculars-
Nothing too stellar during college, just won a couple of district level math and science competitions/scholarships during my school days.
I am aiming for my MBA in Strategy and Leadership from ISB as well as industry specialization in Infrastructure. Although my work-ex provided me extraordinary learning opportunities and exposure, I have always observed that the real brain behind the project was the consultants we engaged for the management of these project. The client was merely an enabler and decision maker (Which is taken by the highest in echelons only). A masters degree and specialization has immense value in my field of work and based on my previous work experience, I feel that management education will augment my profile better in the desired direction than a technical or law based masters program. Hence, I feel that my strategic acumen and skills will grow much faster in a consultancy job which I aim to grab after a formal management education.
I am planning to appear for GMAT this summer and aiming for a 700+ at the least. How should I develop my profile to maximize my chances of an admit?
