Hello MarcoSac,
Where are you attending undergrad? I just want to confirm that this school awards GPAs on a 4.0 basis and your 3.0 is not converted from a different scale.
Your internship at Deloitte is definitely a strength. Personal MBA Coach was actually founded by a former Deloitte consultant and we work with a lot of clients from there each year!
Deferred MBA programs can be competitive, however. Because of this, we really suggest working to maximize your GMAT if you want to get into a top US program. Realistically you will need around a 750 as an Indian applicant.
Additionally, successful applicants have often demonstrated considerable leadership through extracurriculars. Do you have any activities that would help enhance your profile in this regard?
As far as programs to consider, a few that come to mind if you secure a higher GMAT are UVA Darden Future Year Scholars, Berkeley Haas Accelerate Access, and Columbia's Deferred Enrollment Program. Of course, school selection also depends on your personal goals, so knowing these would be helpful.
Feel free to reach out to [email protected] to continue the conversation. And, take a look at our services to learn how we can help you put together strong applications.
Best,
Personal MBA Coach

Hi MarcoSac,
Thank you for sharing your profile. Deferred programs are very competitive, you will need to push your GMAT score at least up to 750 to be considered. On the work front, you will need to pick out the experiences that will provide examples of leadership and impact. Your ECs are missing? Do you pursue any hobby? ECs are essential in your apps because they reveal your diverse personality and enable adcoms to learn about the different facets of your personality. Think about what you like doing and discuss it in order to make the applications more compelling, as this is what can set you apart. Your knowledge of different languages will definitely help you enhance your application. You may want to read the article on what business schools look in the candidate for deferred MBA programs. This article will help you understand your chances for deferred MBA programs.
If you need more direction/guidance over any aspect of your application and have any specific concerns, you can ask us on the forum Ask MBA & Beyond.
I think you should work on your profile. Especially on EC and GMAT. I would like to know more about your work experience to guide you more on this. If you’d like, we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and gauge your fit for the b-school. Feel free to book a free session with us as per your convenience.
How to enhance your application and maximize your chances in Round 1 for fall intake
