Hi Team,

Could you please have a look at my below profile:

I am from India and have completed my engineering in mechanical with a 3.0 GPA. I was the vice captain of my team who participated in BAJA 2013. I was also the chairman of the collegiate SAE club and event head for our college fest for 3 years. After my graduation, the mechanical market was done, so had to branch out for job opportunities.

I have been working for PubMatic since past 2 years which is in the digital advertising and marketing field. I have travelled to our New York and Red Wood City offices to deliver internal training session and attend Quarterly Business Report Meetings of a couple of clients in early 2015. I spent a total of 9 weeks in the US at that time.

I recently gave my GMAT & scored a 640 (my mocks highest was 580, and hence don't plan on giving it again, have to make do with it) and I scored a 109 on my TOEFL.

I want to further gain expertise in Marketing by doing a 2 year MBA course and wish to enter the digital advertising and marketing space again after my MBA. I plan on rekindling my connections with the clients that I had in the US for internships and job opportunities.

Below are some of the colleges that I have narrowed down on:

WP Carey ASU
Babson school of business
Mays, Texas
Whitman, Syracuse
Cox, SMU

I have tried to summarize all major details, do let me know if anything else is missing.

Hi Swapnil,

Your work experience and GMAT score is going to be low for these schools (don't go by the average GMAT scores on the websites, these numbers tend to be higher for Indians as we pose tougher competition among ourselves).
Suggest that you work another year and continue being in contact with your network through this period.
