Hi Sarthak012,
Happy to help! We like to break different aspects of the application into the following buckets to make everything clearer.
GMAT – You have got 690 score. This falls in the median range of the schools that you are targeting. For Canadian B-Schools GMAT score range is from 550-770. So with your current GMAT score you are eligible to apply for top Canadian B-Schools.
Education – This is something that is written in stone and you cannot change. You have got average GPA. It would be helpful to mention your standing in your batch if your GPA is not on a scale of 4.0. Your academic and GMAT score is considered whether you can handle the academic rigor or not.
Work Experience – Since you are from IT background and most of the candidates applying to Canadian B-Schools are from IT background it would be very competitive for you. Your work experience is below average for Canadian B-Schools. Also, it is important to not just reiterate the job profile that you have. It is imperative to showcase the achievements and the awesome things that you have done, the initiatives you have taken, the awards you have received etc. It is better to have 4+ years of work experience for Canadian B-Schools.
Extra Curricular – This section tells the ADCOM about your overall personality and helps them relate to a person instead of a resume. Make sure that you bring out your hobbies, voluntary work and achievements outside work in this area. You seem to have good extra curricular from your academics but you do not have any extracurricular in your professional journey to elaborate in your essay which showcases your leasdership quality.
Essays: This is the section of the application that is in your control and typically carries a lot of weight in the final decision. Each school provide different topics for essays and you need to ensure that you chose the right stories for the questions asked and differentiate yourself from the rest not only in the stories but also in the way you present them. You need to showcase the leadership quality in you and impress the Adcom in order to shortlist your application.
We have been working with students from the past 10 years and helping them get into their dream school by ensuring that they know what and how to write in the essays.
Based on our initial analysis, we have the following school recommendations for you:
1. Rotman School of Management.
2. McGill University.
3. Telfer School of Management- University OF Ottawa.
4. Mcmaster University - Degroote school of Business.
Finally, we could help you in a better way if you can answer the following questions.
1. What are your post-MBA goals?
2. Are you targeting 1 year or 2 year programs?
Hope this was helpful!
