Hi,
I am new to this thread and really wanted to understand certain points - I choose to opt for HKUST MBA 2018-2019 (12 months)
After giving several attempts at GMAT, with my heart bleeding as hell I could secure only 620 (Q - 49, V - 25, IR -6).
If some one can please review and let me know if I stand a chance for HKUST (I do not wish to give GMAT further as my levels have saturated after many attempts)
Following is my profile -
Total Work Exp - 8yrs
Growth in profile -
1. Launched the 3G network for a leading telco in India in 2008
2. Launched a Malaysian retail brand in India in 2014 with 2 outlets in the South
3. Currently, handling a pan India business growth for one of the products of a leading firms in India
4. Launched an e-commerce company attracting a seed funding and aiming to expand to South East Asia
5. Got published in 1 book which is still selling in Amazon, Flipkart and few retail stores in India, U.S. and India., the 2nd book will be published in Aug(most likely)
Extra Curricular - Participation in Athletics & Football (District Level), Playing Guitar, Mouth Organ & Flute, Sketching
Academic History:
Class X - 93%
Class XII - 90%
B.Tech (NIT Durgapur) - 3.4/4 (GPA)
PGDM (IMT) - 3.9/4
I strongly suggest you apply to HKUST in the first round and focus on explaining how you can bring diversity to the class. TBH the GMAT score can be a deterrent.
