X-86%
XII-62%
grad-58%(B.Sc. Hons. Maths & Computers,Punjab Univ.)
After graduation i have been working in my family business for the past 8 yrs.Basically our business involves trading and fabrication of iron sheets.
as far as extra activities are concerned i use to take part in various kinds of co curricular activities in my school days.but in recent times i hav less to offer.
Also i would appreciate suggestions on extra activities which i can add to my profile in the next few months,activities which can help me in improving my prospects of getting into better colleges than possible with my current profile.well i would like to get into top 50 colleges or the best possible colleges considering my profile,colleges like ISB H,HEC PARIS,Columbia business school .I have sent my scores to columbia b school ,isb ,esade , manchester ,texas mccomb univs.
Please suggest me top colleges to which I can apply to improve my leadership,entrepreneurial ,communication skills and which gives me an opportunity to go to 2-4 countries in exchange during or after my course.

Hey Sidharth,
Thanks for the post and the kind words in your PM about our YouTube videos - that meant a lot to us! We hope you found them useful and engaging!
Academically - you're...ok. You have a GMAT score that starts with a "7" which is great! You also have a difficult major and that'll help. But you went to a lower tier university for India and your GMAT isn't exactly as high as some of the others we're seeing coming out of Asia. So again, ok, not great, but ok.
Professionally, working for a family business is always risky. The exception is if your family business is massive with tons of revenue. But a small business isn't that impressive. It's good that you'll have clear leadership and impact initiatives to highlight but the basic tenets of your profile look at where you work and what you do.
Involvement wise, not having anything since graduation (8 years ago) is a flag. There's no way around that.
You weren't as clear about your goals. Are you looking to go back to your family business?
Also, age wise you're...30? 31? Not super old, but anytime an age starts with a "3" for full time programs, that adds just a little bit of complexity. But you're far from "too old" so don't worry about that. It's just something to take note of.
School wise - help us with your goals and what your story is with the GMAT - any retakes? Because at the moment, a lot of the schools you have listed are stretches - and some unrealistically so.
On a side note - there is nothing you can do in the next 2 months involvement wise to fix your profile. You can't do nothing for 8 years and then join something for 2 months and have it help. It's a transparent effort and it'll look bad.

Well right now i am planning to come back to my family business and work towards its expansion/taking it to the next level/diversification.I can start a new venture on my own if i come across an opportunity.
I hav just completed 29.
This GMAT score is from my very first attempt.
Because at the moment, a lot of the schools you have listed are stretches - and some unrealistically so.------------please explain what do you mean from this.Do you mean that many of these schools are difficult to reach for me??
