Hey, it sounds like you have a very interesting and diverse profile, with a strong track record of consistent career growth.
Regarding Executive MBA programs, not all of the schools you’ve mentioned offer full-time Executive MBA programs. Typically, Executive MBA programs are designed for domestic students and are structured as part-time, weekend-based, or flexible formats where participants are on campus every few weeks or once every couple of months.
Because of this, I’m not entirely sure if the schools you mentioned would be the right fit for your Executive MBA goals.
Instead, I’d recommend exploring programs like the MIT Sloan, Stanford Sloan, and LBS Sloan programs, which are all Sloan, style Executive MBA programs tailored for experienced professionals. Additionally, Chicago Booth offers a full-time Executive MBA program as well.
That said, very few schools globally offer full-time Executive MBA formats. We’d be happy to do a detailed
profile review and suggest the most suitable schools for your goals. Feel free to get in touch with us!

Hi everyone!
I have around 4.5yrs of work ex with a CFA L1 certification.
My Class Xth and XIIth grades were extremely good (above 95% and 93% respectively)
However, my grad CGPA was 6.14 with a few backlogs. This is a negative spot on my profile.
I’m targeting top B-schools in UK and Europe for my MBA.
I would really appreciate some guidance as to what my chances are given I get a good/decent GMAT score (655+).
Also, what all can I do to bridge the gap caused by my college GPA and backlogs?
Any help/guidance would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi, schools do consider academic consistency and strong academic performance as an important part of profile evaluations for students.
So, if you have a low CGPA and some backlogs, depending on the quality of schools you’re targeting in the UK and Europe, it would be wise to diversify your applications and mitigate risk by applying to more safety schools.
Additionally, a GMAT score of 655 is around the average for Indian applicants. You may want to aim for a higher score to strengthen your profile.
The most effective way to compensate for a low CGPA and backlogs is by achieving the highest possible GMAT score and building a strong profile with exceptional leadership, technical expertise, and soft skills-based stories.
That said, it really depends on which schools you’re targeting. If you’d like an evaluation of your target schools and suggestions on how to strengthen your profile, we’d be happy to assess your profile for free. Feel free to write to us!
