Hi chan0017,

Your profile seems absolutely great. Your work-experience of PM has examples of great impacts, international exposure, innovation, recognition, and leadership. You have various instances of global recognition in your profile as well (which should give you an edge). Being the founder of an NGO and delegate in Youth Parliament are, again, differentiating experiences for your profile. So, apart from your stats, your profile is amazing and I think you stand a great chance at some international schools as well, say, Rotman, or if you look for Europe, then HEC, Oxford should be good matches to you but for these, you will need to scale your GMAT up (latest 700+). Also, I have a piece of advice (as I do not have any details for your goals), the fact that you have a very straightforward experience in your profile it should not make your post-MBA goals very generic. We are happy to discuss further the right schools for you and your chances at them. Feel free to book a free session with us as per your convenience.

This happens with a lot of applicants. Email ISB and ask your recommender to finish by today or tomorrow

Hi SanyaKullar, it's great that you have a good volunteering and NGO experience, as this aligns perfectly with your interests in the social service sector.

Christ as a college that enjoys a very good brand and you have rich experience across various functions. All this will help you strengthen your profile.

Make sure that your career goals are well articulated so that they seem perfectly aligned with your professional experiences so far. For your goals essay, do mention the specific role that you would want. In fact, social sector consulting would also be something that you might want to consider as your post MBA goal.

All this however, can wait.

Your immediate next step should be to accomplish the score that you are targeting in GMAT (720!)

Hi shubhanshdubey97, your GMAT score obviously stand out in your profile. Make sure you do not lose this momentum, by crafting an immaculate application.

While you have briefly mentioned your current job function, I do not get a sense of your future goals in your post. Generally, management consulting is a career goal that aligns with the Analytics Consulting work that you are currently doing. ISB has a good reputation for launching Consulting careers.

In other words make sure that your career goals show continuity and seamlessness, with your current work experience.

Re: ISB Profile Evaluation - Tools for B-School Profile Evaluation [#permalink]

Good evening everyone,
Please evaluate my profile for ISB:

Age: 29 yr, Male
GMAT Score: Not Applied yet

Educational Qualifications -
- Graduation: Completed Dual Degree (B.Tech +M.Tech) in one of the Core Engg branch (mech/civil) from an IIT in 2013 with 6.65 CGPA overall
- H.S.C: secured 78% from CBSE Board in 2008.
- S.S.C: secured 77.4% from CBSE Board in 2006.

Work Experience -
- May, 2013 - July, 2015: Gap Years
- August, 2015 - March, 2020: worked as Physics Faculty for IIT JEE

- Though I have 5 years of teaching experience in JEE coachings but I didn't get any experience letters. How can I justify my experience?
- I have left my current job as I want to change my career path.

Extra Curricular -
- Coordinated a few Tech events in college
- Coordinated the tech festival of our Branch
- Participated in a few Inter-IIT Tech fests
- was Mess Manager in my 1st year of college
- was Training & Placement Rep too.

Previous attempts for MBA -
- GMAT: None [Got a 620 Score in the Free GMAT Official Practice Mock without any prep]
- CAT 2013: QA/DI - 99.96%ile, VA/LR - 47%ile, Overall - 97%ile
- CAT 2014: QA/DI - 75%ile, VA/LR - 97%ile, Overall - 94%ile

Target: ISB 2021-22 (Finance)

Query -
- What type of career path should I expect? From few of my friends who have done MBA from ISB, IIMs, I got to know that students usually get placed in sectors they have prior experience of. So will I, being a teacher for past 5 years, face difficulty getting placed in say, Finance or Consulting sector? I am not really interested in Sales/Marketing.
- In my last job, I was drawing 20 LPA roughly. Does going for MBA justify the switch financially for someone with a profile like mine at my age (29)?
- As you can see, I am a below average candidate.. is there even any chance to get through ISB?

Interestingly enough I have similar profile. Just try your luck. . . Even with the best of the profiles, we can't be sure and so is the case with any profile
