Hi,
I am a long time fan of the GMAT Club Forums.
I gave my GMAT in Feb and scored a 760 (V45, Q49) with a 5.5 in AWA and 6 in IR.
My nationality is Indian. I have a bachelor's degree in Economics from a reputed college in Delhi University however my overall grade is just below 60%.
I have around 6 years of varied work experience. I am 26 years old.
I started out as a strategy analyst for KPMG wherein I handled clients from Australia and Western Europe while working out of the Indian office. I worked here for over a year during which I was given a partner's commendation and became the only analyst who led communication training for the new members.
Post KPMG I joined a travel content startup where I built and led a 7 member marketing team and liaisoned with the tech team to build marketing products. I was promoted within 6 months since I helped reduce the overall marketing spend drastically while increasing the efficiency of our targeting by instituting data-driven processes. While working here I also became a travel anchor and a scriptwriter which eventually led to me starting my own venture after spending almost 2 years with this company.
I started a creative agency 3 years ago. Over this period, we have provided a wide cross-section of solutions to our clients ranging from social media posts to a travel TV show which streamed across 18 channels.
Part of the reasons for my average grades in college is down to the fact that I was heavily involved in debating and have won numerous tournaments at the national level. Till recently I kept mentoring college students to help them develop their public speaking skills.
I recently wrote a whitepaper on a set of laws that were to be passed in India. A lawyer took note of my concerns and we successfully were able to get the law amended. If the law were to be passed in its previous form it could have had a devastating impact on small businesses across the country.
I am hoping to get into one of the M7 schools in the US or into LBS since I want to eventually start a content-tech company. In the short term, I am looking at roles in either VC or in product management. I am slightly biased towards US schools since I am looking at changing careers and I believe a 2 year MBA would serve my goals better.
I had applied to Insead for the January 2023 intake in the second round, however, I did not make the shortlist.
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Great profile .. great gmat score... you will definitely get into M7 college.
kindly share your strategy on how you got VA 45... It would be very beneficial to students like me who are weak in verbal. Thanks

Thanks for your kind words. I used the Manhattan books as my guides (especially for SC).
I also went through all the GMAT Ninja videos, I can't stress how valuable they are.
Apart from this I tried the TTP verbal course, but due to the sheer volume of content I felt a little burnt out and decided to focus on other prep material. If you want an in depth albeit a time consuming course you can check out TTP.
I also did multiple mock tests to ensure that nothing took me by surprise on exam day. I feel that dedicating the last 2 weeks of my preperation exclusively to mocks was extremely useful for pushing my verbal score up.
I hope this helps.
