That's very varied experience Peeyush, which will have its strong and weak points. Adcoms may wonder why you want an MBA when you have already achieved so much. Also, moving into consulting at the associate level may not make sense with your rich and varied experience.
In all, you will have to tie your story together to convince the adcom about the need for an MBA.

Samreen,
1. Aim for a 700+ score. You are applying next year, so you have the time to practice more and improve your mock test scores. 2. your profile description talks about a lot of peripherals, but not about your work experience, the achievements and impact you have created at work. Its therefore hard to give more feedback

Interesting profile! You have an interesting story to tell here- started up- failed- joined another venture and realized what I was doing wrong and areas where I lacked- b-school will help me fill those gaps. keep up the good work and score 700+ on GMAT. Get involved in some volunteering initiatives.

Its hard to say how your application will be perceived without knowing more about you. If you are an otherwise exceptional candidate, ISB may cut some slack on the GMAT score. Important criteria will be your leadership capability and ability to make impact, both at work (proven skills) and at ISB, while you are there.

Hi Namita, thanks for your reply. Financial considerations prevent me from applying this year. But do I stand a good chance with the same score if I apply next year? Please advice.

Hi,
Can you please evaluate my profile for class of 2020. I know it's quite early.
I am a Marine engineer by profession, working with professionals of different nationalities onboard the ship, and have a work experience of 2.5 years as of now. I graduated from BITS PILANI with a CGPA of 8.8. I took my GMAT in Dec 2017 and scored 690(V40,Q44). Currently, I work with one of the biggest company in the shipping industry. ( fortune 500)
10th marks - 87.8% (CBSE) 12th marks - 87.8% (CBSE)
Extra curriculars- 1) State level cricket for Rajasthan ( twice) 2) Was house captain at junior and senior level 3) Lot of prizes in debate and other intra house sports ( cricket, badminton, basketball, swimming. ) 4) Got "Good Samaritan award" during graduation.
College level - 5) Had leadership roles in college for all the years ( was House Cadet Captain - managing around 300 cadets) 6) Got scholarship for every semester ranging from Rs 30,000 to Rs 10,000 7) Got "Spirited performance award" upon graduation.
Current role-
Includes watch keeping as full incharge of main engine and boiler, inventory management, performance analysis of engines, compressors, purifiers, fuel management (worth of hundred thousands of dollars), part of emergency team.
Promotion - Obtained MEO class 4 from Govt. Of India. Based on which, I was promoted to next rank. I also write for one of the famous maritime websites as freelance writer.
Special mention - I was involved in rescue operation of more than 300 refugees from Sudan and Somalia who were trapped in Libya.
Post MBA goals - I want to work in operations sector specifically SCM. I think my experience of inventory and fuel management will come handy.
Also, can you please suggest me whether it will be a wise decision to do lean six sigma green belt course to make my profile stand out ( given the fact that lot of senior rank mariners also apply to ISB)
Please help me with your valuable feedbacks regarding my profile.

Suraj,
How much of this experience is full time work experience after you completed your graduation? ISB will consider only that as your experience, no other. TFI is great experience to have on your resume, especially if you worked in their 2 year program with schools. However, I am unable to get a complete picture of your work experience from the way you have listed it here, so do elaborate on it.

I'd strongly recommend retaking the GMAT/GRE. You have an otherwise competitive profile, but both your GMAT and GRE are way below the class average, which will certainly put you at a disadvantage.

That’s right folks, the Sloan admissions interview has been and gone, on a brilliantly sunny day last Friday, I found myself walking through Regent’s Park on route...
You’re excited to move back to your home country, after living abroad for ten years. Not every decision or act is intended to be an act of rebellion. But...
In general, I suggest submitting the application online because rumor has it that paper-based takes much longer time since the officer-in-charge will have to encode your application manually. ...
close
