Hello to everyone at GMATClub.
I recently gave my GMAT and got a 740(Q50 V40). I'm currently in my 3rd year of engineering(computer science) at a highly reputed engineering college in India.
My previous scores are:
10th-95%
12th-96.4%
B.Tech currently- 8.6/10 GPA

I want to know what are my chances of getting selected through YLP this year.
Also I need help regarding what I should write in my essay of Stage 1. I don't know my short and long term goals as of now. Furthermore, how do I justify MBA after engineering??

Any help would be highly useful. Thanks a lot!

Posted from my mobile device


Well done on a great GMAT score With a score like this I would definitely consider looking into top MBA programs.

MBA admission officers generally look for applicants with work experience, so it might be worth taking a few years to do that. However, remember that GMAT scores are only valid for 5 years.

When it comes to applying to MBA programs, have a look at the specializations that schools offer. You might find something that interests you.

Regarding your essay, on our website we have a great page with essay examples for different programs. Check it out https://aringo.com/mba-essay-examples/

Please be in contact if you need further help,
Georgia
