Looking for profile evaluation. Appreciate your advises! [#permalink] New post   18 Apr 2019, 08:25
Looking for a 1-year MBA course starting 2020 (Priority Mar’20 intake)

General profile:

Gender: Female
Nationality: Indian
Age: 25 years
UG: B.Sc (h) statistics
Grade: 4.0 GPA
GMAT score: 670 (Q47/V35)

34 months of experience in the market and client insights team of a global management consulting firm (as market research analyst and deputy manager, market research). Currently working (as a senior business analyst) in a leading Indian research and advisory firm

Work experience: 44 months (~3.5 years)

Current job profile: Research and analysis support, catering to business development. Witnessed an exponential growth. Got an opportunity to lead a global team of about 15 people. Also hold experience and have been active in hiring new associates to the team.

Why MBA: looking forward to an extension to my current role and specialise in strategic consulting aiming at business development.

Based on my career plans and the curriculum of respective b-schools and geographic suitability, I aspire for the following b-schools:
Insead (Paris), HEC (Paris), Ivey (Canada) and ISB (India) - Not sure if these are not all long shots with my current GMAT score?

Looking forward to any expert advises here!

Thanks!

Hi Soumya, for a realistic shot at these schools, I would urge you to re-attempt and target 700+ GMAT.

You're a B.Sc Stats. I am sure you can do better in Quant.

Good luck!

Hope this finds you well.

Irrespective of your fine GPA and career plans, you will still need to aim for a much higher GMAT score. The programs you are targetting are top-notch ones and considering you come are Indian candidate the GMAT expectations will be a lot higher from you. Though you have a high standard profile, you have to meet the basic eligibility criteria of the schools.
Hence, we recommend some solid preparation (and a better score; preferably upwards of 710), before you apply. The extra curriculums can make a lot of difference to get a positive response from the schools, you can discuss your EC's if you have any which can broaden your chances.

You can try our unique tool to know your "Chances for B school" or feel free to get in touch with us to have a brief discussion on your profile.

Hello Soumya94,

Thanks for writing in.

Your leadership experience and career growth will definitely add a lot of value to your case. However, despite the same, considering the schools you are targetting, it is strongly recommended that you re-take your GMAT and aim for a score in excess of 720; the higher the better.

Please also watch the following video as it will help you evaluate your profile:



Good Luck!
