Hi ,

Could you please evaluate my profile.

About Me:

Age - 27
GMAT - 760 (Q-51,V-41,IR-8,AWA-4)
Nationality: Indian
Gender : Male
Undergrad: Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology - Bachelor of Engineering(B.E) in Electronics and Communications - 65 % (one of the Top 100 colleges in India)
12th: 95.6%
10th: 84 %

Any tips or questions would be very much appreciated, but I have a few specific questions into which I would love some insight as well:
• Which US B-schools should I target?
• Is my profile good enough to get decent scholarships in the Top 20 US b-schools?
• What more I can do to strengthen my profile so that my chances of making to Top 20 schools increase?

Thanks for your time.

Hi SaiEshwar3001,

Fantastic job on the GMAT - that will be a tailwind to help your candidacy! I've added comments in line below in blue. Hope this is helpful guidance and I'm happy to continue the dialogue with a consultation if that would be helpful.

Hi ,

Could you please evaluate my profile.

About Me:

Age - 27
GMAT - 760 (Q-51,V-41,IR-8,AWA-4) Excellent!
Nationality: Indian
Gender : Male
Undergrad: Chaitanya Bharathi Institute of Technology - Bachelor of Engineering(B.E) in Electronics and Communications - 65 % (one of the Top 100 colleges in India) Did this get you into first class/division/honors in your class? Given the 65% I'm assuming it did, but want to confirm. If so, then on the academic aptitude side you're looking very strong.
One thing I'd like to know a little more about is any extracurriculars. Showing that you have a track record of community involvement, leadership, cultural awareness, etc will help strengthen your profile. Listing out your activities during college will help you put together a strong resume that demonstrates a more complete picture of your undergrad experience.
12th: 95.6%
10th: 84 %
Currently working as Consultant in Deloitte (4+ years) [url]This is within the 3-8 years of work experience average that most top US programs target. If you've had promotions (especially on the fast track), awards, honors, recognition, etc, then this will create a good picture of how you've performed relative to your peers. Beyond recognition, your actual experience and learning during your career thus far will help admission committees understand more about the types of skills you've gained, how you work (i.e. collaborative, fast pace, strong communicator, etc). Your resume should be full of "mini stories" that explain the context, challenges, your specific actions and the results/accomplishments/outcomes.[/url]

Any tips or questions would be very much appreciated, but I have a few specific questions into which I would love some insight as well:
• Which US B-schools should I target? Certainly I recommend starting with top 20 programs given your GMAT. I suggest you start by looking deeper into the top 20 schools and consider which ones will be best fit for you to help you reach your career goals. Consider the culture, community, curriculum, clubs and centers/institutes that you'll get involve with.
• Is my profile good enough to get decent scholarships in the Top 20 US b-schools? It's difficult to really comment on that. Certainly with a high GMAT score you're well positioned, but it also depends on the program. See this blog about 4 Strategies to Find MBA Program Scholarships
• What more I can do to strengthen my profile so that my chances of making to Top 20 schools increase? Do you have any extracurriculars? Particularly leadership and cross-cultural experience, pursing activities that you're passionate about and committed over time. Also, noticeably missing in this description is a forward-looking career aspiration. Business schools want you to be successful, and they're going to admit people that they know they can help be successful. Core to them doing that is knowing that you have specific career goals in the short and long term, as well as you've done enough research on the program to understand how the MBA program will help you achieve your goals by filling in gaps in skillsets/experiences/networks.

Thanks for your time.
