Hey dude!
What a niiiiiiice GMAT!!!
and great to hear from you.
But to move forward on this I need a LOT more info about this: "3 promotions over 11 years in India at a leader in the telecommunications industry (think Fortune 50’ish)"
You're talking about executive programs here, so it is ALL based on your WE. Where do you work? What do you do? How quickly have you advanced? Do you have any leadership? What are your great achievements? Do you have notable community service or extra curriculars?
Lemme know and I will be able to advise you further,
Best,
Jon
