Hey there,

Your stats seem good enough for these schools, but some unknowns still remain in your profile -- please see below for what they are:

- Where you went for undergrad
- You career goals post MBA
- Your choice for recommenders and the strength of letters they provide
- Quality of your essays

Without at least knowing the first two above, it's tough to do a holistic evaluation on your chances for these schools. If you want to maximize your chances though, make sure you ace the third and fourth bullet points (as well as your interview when you're invited by the school). If you would like a free consultation, please sign up with the link provided and we're more than happy to analyze your profile further: https://admissionado.com/free-consultation/

Good luck!

Hi there. Firstly thank you for taking the time to evaluate my profile.

As for your questions:
1. I've been to a tier 2 university in India for my undergrad pursuing a bachelor's in computer science.

2. My career goals post MBA are to continue in finance possibly moving into financial analysis or financial operations management.

3. As for recommenders I am looking at senior management personnel from my current workplace under whom I have done my work.

4. I am confident about being able to write good quality essays.

Thanks again.

Hi Tyrone43,

With the additional details you provided, I would say that you have a chance at getting into these programs, given that your GMAT score meets the average and you can provide good essays and LOR's. However, how competitive you are will depend on how well you can make your case as to how you are differentiated from all the other Indian nationals applying, especially those from a similar field and a higher ranked university. Furthermore, with 3 years (4 by the time you attend) of experience you are still below the average for both SMU (5-7 years) and Warwick (avg age 31). You really need to prove to the adcom that you have enough experience to be a valuable contributor to the program, and why now is the time for you to get your MBA, and why you need it. The last point is very important since you're looking to continue in finance. The school needs to know that you need the MBA, otherwise if you can achieve your long term goal without it, they would prefer to give the seat to someone else that really needs it to succeed. Hope this helps.

Best,
Cindy
