[*]Hi
comradeAB , I hope you are doing well!
Your profile showcases good academic performance, especially with an impressive improvement in your 12th-grade results and a solid undergraduate CGPA of 8.17. A GRE Quant score of 165 aligns well with programs like Master’s in Finance and Data Science. However, limited work experience (5 months) and a low GRE Verbal score (141) might be areas of concern for competitive programs, especially in Round 3, where seats are limited. To strengthen your application, clearly explain your gap year due to health issues in the optional essay, emphasizing resilience. Highlight leadership roles, competitions, and any additional certifications or projects to showcase your potential. Focus on schools with a holistic admissions approach, craft compelling essays, and consider retaking the GRE if feasible to improve your Verbal score for a competitive edge.
