Hi, I'm looking forward to get admission for Supply Chain/Operations management program.
I'm Indian male (23), didn't give my GMAT yet (target 700+).
Working in Manufacturing sector at Infosys - 2 years WE:
+Was one (& youngest) among 5 others (out of 250 employees) to receive annual recognition award
+Improved application process which aided in significant increase in client satisfaction with analytical skills and root cause analysis
+Effectively reduced the number of service requests per day from 8 to 2 with analytical skills and root cause analysis
+Saved 60+ hours of monthy manual effort by automating perfunctory tasks
+Anchor and lead the automation drive in our team
+Supervise and train a team of three fresher recruits, received commendable feedback for transforming them into professional individual at work
+Well known as a trustable team member, ethical person at work, a person to reach out for sharing personal issues or for motivation
+Volunteer for blood donation camps at campus, coordinate and arrange team parties, participate in sports events
Mechanical Engineering from Anna University - 7.6 CGPA:
During graduation, participated in sports events, academic workshops, volunteered to coordinate and arrange visits to old age/oprhanage homes for 3 semesters, did an internship and played a pivotal role in construction of new launch pad as a part of final year project work at ISRO, which was appreciated well from Deputy Manager at ISRO as well as university professors for completing 45 day project work within 30 days.
XII - 97%, X - 9.2 GPA:
Have pretty good extra curricular participation and winning, was School Pupil Leader for an year, was part of National Cadet Corps for two years and participated in two national level camps and also volunteered for various NGO activities.
Motivated, provided guidance and tutored one of my friend to improve his score from 60% to 90% in his Higher Secondary Schooling examinations.
I'm open to do an MS/MBA program, I would like to know if my profile is suitable to get into a renowned university.
1. Is it advisable to take GRE/GMAT for my profile and what should be my target score?
2. If I'm planning to join by the end of 2019, which universities should i be targeting so as to have good chances of getting admit calls?
Thanks and regards,
Sharan Salem

Hi xalemsharan,
Thank you for reaching out and for sharing your profile. I have answered your questions below.
1. Is it advisable to take GRE/GMAT for my profile and what should be my target score? Which standardized test to sit in for depends on which program you apply; MS program typically require GRE; while (many) MBA programs have begun accepting the GRE in addition to the GMAT. You should aim for the test that can cover the most ground. As to the score, should you sit in for the GMAT and are considering top universities (which I recommend you do apply to both reach, target, and safety schools), you should aim at scoring 720+ or look at the class average and aim 10-20 points higher, precisely because you belong to an overrepresented applicant pool.
2. If I'm planning to join by the end of 2019, which universities should i be targeting so as to have good chances of getting admit calls? As I mentioned above, you should attempt to focus on a variety of schools to increase your chances of admissions. Be selective and realistic, however, because a successful application is one that takes into account the university, i.e., there is no such thing as one size fits all when it comes to the MBA application, which means that each application takes time.
I hope this helps. If you are interested to continue the conversation, please feel free to reach out and schedule a free consultation (contact details in signature).
Good luck!

Thank you SiaAdmissions for the warm response, i would like to know few things here:
1. I have come to know that, to pursue a course in Supply Chain/Operations you have two ways, either you can go with the MS degree (MS in Supply Chain, MS in Industrial Engineering) or MBA degree. If that is correct, what are the major differences in these two courses?
2. With the above information, which of these two paths (MS/MBA) will consider/I can showcase and use my current job experience while getting an admit or while fetching a job post course completion?
Thanks and regards,
Sharan Salem
