Profile evaluation request [#permalink] New post   22 Sep 2022, 06:23
Hi team,

Request you to evaluate my profile.

I am an Indian male, aged 29years. I took my Gmat on 20th Sep,2022 and scored 710(Q49, V38, IR7)

Currently I am working for Bharat Petroleum Corp Ltd ( A public sector Undertaking in the petroleum sector, a fortune 500 company). I have worked for the company for more than 4 years, in the capacity of Key account manager previously and currently as an area sales manager.

My academic profile:
10th: 93.4%
12th:92%
BTech: 8.32 GPA
MBA(IIM Kozhikode, specializing in Sales and Marketing):3.2/4.33, during which I also interned with Nestle India in channel management domain.

I have worked for various NGOs during my undergrad and working years tutoring under privileged kids. I have also been running my own dropshipping business for around 1.5months.

I plan to pursue a second MBA specializing in Strategy management either in Canada or from Europe, to pursue my goal of becoming a strategy consultant.

Could you please tell me my chances for the top Bschools in the desired region are and also if I am quite late for 2023 batch?

Thanks in advance

Hi Kaustav (@roychoudhuryka):

I think you are in good shape from both a profile and timing perspective.

Yes, you are slightly older than the average candidate, but still very much in the band for acceptable tenure. You can't change anything about it anyways, so don't fret.

As for 2023 matriculation, the timing is fine. Start now. Try to get in applications for R1, but consider R2 as well. There really isn't a major difference in terms of statistics. Just make sure you submit the best possible applications, not rushed ones.

If you are interested in bringing on a professional admissions consultant to put together an effective timeline and list of CAN/EU schools for you to pursue this application season, don't hesitate to reach out to us for a free consultation using this link:

Thank you so much for the reply... I had one more question as to what Gmat score I should have tried for a scholarship at say either Rotman or Ivey?

It's our pleasure.

Scholarships are tricky because there isn't a standard criteria (neither is there for admissions but it's at least more predictable.) So, the right answer to your question about the GMAT would be "as high of a score as possible."

Pragmatically speaking, try to clear a 730, so 20+ points over your current score. That should make you a more desirable candidate and give you a chance at some money.

Hope that helps,
Admissionado
