Some questions which I have - 1) Would that GMAT score be enough?
2) I have already done a PGDM would that affect my chances.
3) How are Indian GPAs evaluated? My grad GPA and PGDM GPA aren't that great. How does that affect my chances
4) Overall evaluation of my profile? Any comments

Hi,

I will answer your questions:

1. Overall evaluation of my profile? Any comments : very impressive. International experience in brand management and marketing really helps for the business insights you will bring to the class.
2. I have already done a PGDM would that affect my chances. - Not at Kellogg. You can apply for their one year MBA program- you have a better fit there with your substantial work experience
3. How are Indian GPAs evaluated? My grad GPA and PGDM GPA aren't that great. How does that affect my chances/ 1) Would that GMAT score be enough? - these are interlinked. GPA and GMAt scores are considered together for the academic evaluation of an applicant. In your case, unfortunately both are average. You can provide me with some perspective on the undergrad degree. Was it 3 years/ how difficult was it? How does your percentage compare with that of your classmates? Did you rank among the top 5-10% in class? If your undergrad GPA is not that solid, you should retake the GMAT. Kellogg's average GMAT score is 730, so applying with a lower than average GMAT and so-so GPA will put you at a disadvantage.

Hi Thanks for your quick response.. Helps
GPA - well, the univ topper would be at 78%.. I had 72%, other than that nothing significant. Mumbai Univ isn't known for giving scores above 75% for grad course. Hence asked how the Indian GPAs are treated.
So should I apply with this score or retake GMAT? or would the overall profile make it up

Thanks again

Hi all - I'm targeting R2 application this year and would appreciate any feedback on my profile. Thanks in advance!

Demographics: Hispanic Male (27 years old), EU/USA dual citizenship
Undergrad GPA: 3.5/4.0
Undergrad school/major: Environmental Science and French Language at a large research university (think University of Minnesota/University of Wisconsin tier)
GMAT Score: 720
Total experience: 4.5 years
Work experience:
My primary background has been in enterprise software sales:

I started my career as a Business Development Representative (BDR) at a large software company in their Business Intelligence/Analytics division. After succeeding there (top 10% performer) I was given an offer to leave the company to work for a small but promising startup as an enterprise sales representative.
I spent a year at the startup, taking on many additional roles adjacent to my primary sales function, and was responsible for bringing in over $500,000 in Annual Contract Value (over half of our total ACV). The company eventually pivoted after a year, and completely dissolved the sales team to focus on developing a new product.

I left the startup to go work at a large software company again (think SFDC, Microsoft, Amazon). I was quickly promoted to lead account executive for mid-sized Department of Defense (DoD) sales. This role involved selling my company’s suite of products into the DoD working closely with partners (Deloitte, Accenture, Cap Gemeni, IBM, etc…) to develop proposals and implementation roadmaps. This was a completely client-facing role and I presented our solutions to a large number of important DoD leaders, CIOs, and project leads. I achieved 170% of my quota over the course of my time there, and was public sector account executive of the quarter in Q4 of last year. I also lead a team of 3 business development representatives and one dedicated Sales Engineer.

I left the company after 2 years when my significant-other and I moved to the Middle-East because of a foreign service requirement for her job. I’ve been volunteering full-time at a refugee non-profit organization. I manage their donor relations software, create all donation reports, assist in our monthly audits, and have been leading their current winter fundraising campaign. I will be living here until summer 2020.

Extra curricular: The volunteer work described above Is my biggest “extra curricular”. I was also involved in raising money for a military veterans training and education program at my previous company. Outside that, I’m an avid hiker, having climbed all 48 of New Hampshire’s “4000 footer” mountains. I'm also fluent in French, having grown up there for 3 years as a child.

Goal of MBA: My goal is to get a position at a management consulting firm (targeting MBB). I’m specifically interested in joining the sustainability practices at one of these firms. My experience in selling enterprise software into large organizations has helped shape my interest in leading large scale organizational change. I am now at a point where I want to focus on issues more in line with my interests, hence the ideal focus on sustainability and climate change. Ultimately I’d like to build a specialization in those areas.
