Hi bibbudata

You should specify what kind of projects you’ve worked on at ZS Consulting. If there’s a functional focus, for example, marketing research or compensation design, that becomes the core of your pre-MBA exposure. You should then think carefully about how to connect this expertise with your post-MBA goals, once you have more clarity on what those goals are.
Keep in mind that the ZS applicant pool is often overrepresented, so you must invest time in building a truly compelling application. I would recommend considering ISB for now and IIM ABC once you meet the minimum work experience eligibility criteria.
I work with many ZS candidates every year, so feel free to reach out if you would like to discuss your profile in more detail or get deeper insights.

Dear bibbudata,

One look through your profile tells us that you have performed well academically throughout, which is definitely a strong point for your application. Your scores across 10th, 12th and undergrad are consistently impressive, and the academic scholarship you received only reinforces that strength.

While we do not have detailed information about your work experience yet, your time at ZS Associates is surely a solid foundation. Given the nature of work at ZS, there is strong potential to bring out meaningful impact stories in your application, which can really help your profile stand out.

We would also love to discover more on the extracurricular side. If there are any specific interests or initiatives you have taken up that reflect your qualities or give us a sense of what motivates you, that could add great depth to your profile. Being PR Lead at SRMKZILLA already signals initiative and leadership, so if there is more in this space, it could be worth highlighting.

Given your academic background and professional experience, targeting a GMAT score of 665 or above would place you in a good position for ISB. Of course, the higher the score, the better it will support your application. In addition to ISB, you could also consider SPJIMR, which accepts the GMAT and is another top Indian business school worth exploring.

At Team FLY, we are a collective of ISB alumni committed to supporting MBA applicants with profile positioning, essay reviews and interview preparation. This year, we are also making our offerings more candidate friendly and outcome driven. In fact, we now offer a 50 percent refund if a candidate does not make it through. It is something we believe no one else in the market currently offers, and we are excited to extend that level of confidence and support to serious applicants.

Please feel free to book a 15 minute free session for a detailed discussion with us: https://calendly.com/reachusfly/15min

With warm regards,

Hi Bibbu,
You have a strong academic background and solid work experience with ZS Associates. With 3 years of experience, you're good to go for the ISB PGP. Aim for a GMAT Focus score of 645+ to stay competitive.

Your academic scholarship will further strengthen your profile. Also, many candidates from ZS Associates successfully make it to ISB. Take the test soon and aim for Round 1 or Round 2 deadline.
