❓
My Core Question:Given my
67% in B.Tech and XII, will my academic profile
hinder chances at top B-schools like
ISB, IIMA/B/C, INSEAD, or
M7 (Kellogg, Wharton, MIT Sloan, etc.)?
- I’ve heard mixed things about undergrad cutoffs—does strong M.Tech from IIT + patents + impact-heavy work balance this out?
- Any advice on how to best position this academically weaker segment?
- If yes, How much GMAT score needed, and any other extra things need to upgrade
- Or should I leave this dream, that also please tell.
Would love feedback from anyone with similar stats or successful admits. Appreciate it!
