Hi team,
Please find below a brief snapshot of my profile:
Nationality: Indian, Male, 27 years old
Work Ex: I would have close to 4 years of work-ex by the time I join. This includes around 2.5 years in a top tier management consulting firm (BCG) and close to 1 years with a fast growing VC funded start-up (raised almost 100M USD). Currently working with Uber in the Strategy and Planning team.
Academics: I have completed PGDM with 3.45/4.33 (top 10% in batch) from IIM Bangalore and Bachelor in Technology with 8.4 CGPA/10 from a top IIT. My +2 level score was 90% and Secondary level score was 94%; score 99.99 in CAT
Extra-currics: Led the management conclave, national level quizzer, multiple pan-India case competitions, editor of campus magazine, quiz master, India head for a student consulting body, projects with top tier VC firms and well known Indian SME; Currently working on a website/blog to promote financial literacy among gig economy workers
GMAT Score: 760
Target schools: HBS, Stanford, Wharton, Booth and Columbia
Goals: Larger goal is to move to a meaningful role in a global tech start-up. Indian MBA has largely restricted the geography I can work in. I want to change that and at the same time gain exposure in an international class room. In the longer run, want to contribute to the Indian start-up ecosystem either as part of a start-up or by running by own VC firm focussing on 'profitable' ventures across sectors.
Request your help in understanding my chances of getting through to my target schools. Please let me know if I need to add any more pointers/experience to my work-ex to make my profile attractive. I am planning to apply in R2 for class of 2022.
Thanks!

Hi mohitro!
Looks like I reviewed your profile last year: https://gmatclub.com/forum/profile-eval ... l#p2118464
Did you have any follow-up questions?
I still think that top schools are possible with your strong work background, IIT credentials, and high GMAT, but there are some challenges in your profile too with the existing PGDM and what still seems like slightly light current ECAs. Give some M7 schools a shot, but can you go for R1 instead of R2? Then you could have a few non-M7 schools in mind as R2 backups. I think that's a smarter strategy.
Hope that helps!
Kate
