Hi Alex,
I am an international applicant, been in the US NYC for the past six months. My profile is as follows
Age: 31
GMAT: 710 (Q: 49, 86%, V: 38, 83%)
MBA in Mktg & Strategy from top 4 management programs of India
Work Ex: 7 years, 3.5 years entrepreneur pre MBA, post MBA 3.5 years in Sales & Marketing, last role as a Brand Manager in top Indian FMCG.
Acads: weak point, average in under grad and MBA
Strong extra currics - leadership positions through out
I had applied to Columbia and Stern at the end of Round 2s, got dinged. I am thinking of applying to Rutgers. Can you please advise me on the program and my chances of getting into it. I cannot move out of NY/NJ for an MBA due to partners' immobility. Rutgers 1 year seems inviting, but not very sure about the brand name and hence employment prospects. I am also contemplating INSEAD and IMD, but not sure due to lack of international experience.
Also if you can suggest alternative MBA programs, it would be very helpful.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help.
