Hi Jennifer!

I’m Tanisha from India (female, 25)

I’ve gotten interview invites from IE and ESADE, submitted my Nanyang application.

My NUS and HEC applications are ready, but I’m just unsure if my gre score is enough to apply. I don’t have time to redo the test, because then I’ll only know from them by April and my Spain colleges will give time until march latest.

Also not sure if I should apply to HEC Jan intake instead?

Here’s more about me:

5years at a global pr agency Burson, two years of exp as manager, 3 promotions in 5 years. Worked with global clients like Uber, Amazon, Logitech, and Indian startups. Client servicing for retail and tech clients.

Also has part-time experience helping with digital upgradation for my 40+ year old family business.

Accredited in Indian public relations and have won awards internally for campaigns.

Looking to work in marketing post MBA, aiming for French, Spanish / Singaporean colleges for full time course.

BA in Media and Communications from Manipal Institute of Communication (2018-21)

Lots of extra curricular activities, tedx, debate club, leadership for local communities

My gre score is 316 (v157 q159 AWA 4.0) quant is 47th percentile

I’ve got interviews to IE and ESADE using their tests. Want to understand if this score is ok for HEC / essec / nanyang / NUS

Have thorough, extremely positive recommendations from my boss (business head of south India office) and ex manager

Outside of work, I’m passionate about food and community building. I’ve also cofounded a run community with over 300 members. Many other extra curricular activities during college as well.

Just confused about the gre score / HEC application
Thanks for the details - great profile. Great job on securing interviews so far! 316 is not a bad score, it is slightly lower, but there is a qualitative positive to your profile - you have momentum and seems like passion. These can help carry you with a slightly lower score (even as an Indian). HEC does offer profile evals, so my advice is to send for review and then decide if you want to apply for Fall or try for better score for Jan intake.

Great - Your profile aligns with the IIM’s and ISB senior programs, need to highlight your breadth and depth within MFG and how the "MBA" will help you pivot into consulting for MFG - as it makes most sense - or if you’ve been in an industry - minerals, FMCG.. then you can also pitch this area for consulting strategy

Thank you! I did meet with the recruitment and marketing manager when she visited India at a small, private HEC mixer in December and she said she had reviewed my cv to invite me and suggested I apply (I didn’t have my score back then)

Does HEC give the option to wait on my application while I retake the exam / option to move my application from sept to jan intake if they aren’t satisfied with the gre score?
I would follow up with this person with your exam score and see what they say.
I am not sure about the programs flexibility to move your application from one term to the next after submitted. I’ve seen it with other programs in the US, but not HEC or INSEAD - not saying it isn’t possible though - so best to ask your contact.

Thanks, Sajjad1994,
