IshaanGanoo
Background and nationality: Indian, Male

Undergrad Information: Bachelors in Science(2018-2021)-Math major-7.21/10 CGPA

GMAT/GRE- Yet to appear, but recent mocks(Manhattan and Veritas) fetched me 620 and 650. I'm hoping to get a 700+ by December end.

Work experience and leadership: 1 year in AIESEC(6 months as a HR), 1.5months in Turkey on an AIESEC exchange(English teaching), HR intern at a startup(Nov 21'-present)

Community and others: Active participation at an NGO which organises talent shows for differently abled people around the country.

Post Master goals: Want to stay back in the country where I study(Europe or Oceania), get paid well for some years and eventually open up a chain of restaurants.

I also play football, play guitar and powerlifting(but I do not have any major certificates or achievements in those fields)
I also speak Spanish pretty well.

Now, I am aiming for the top universities for MiM(your HEC, INSEAD, LBS, etc.) , but based on my profile, what do you think are some good choices for me? I am aiming for 2022 Fall intake. Please be brutally honest with your reviews, I know I don't have the best profile, but gotta do something with what I've got.

Hey IshaanGanoo,
Your GPA is not bad and your work experience is also impressive. It will definitely be an advantage of international work experience in your application so be sure to include that with certifications like LORs. As you mentioned you have worked with NGOs and are an active sports person that will surely give strength to your resume.
Irrespective of your strong resume your GMAT score is low.
For you to get an admit in universities like HEC and INSEAD you will require a GMAT score of at least 700.
I would recommend you to give your GMAT in February or early March so that you can apply just before round 3 deadlines.
Practice as much as you can and if you still can’t improve your GMAT scores.
You can surely get an admit in your university of choice with a little help.
