All the best!

adazx18 - your profile shows potential, given the academics/ GPA's, GMAT score and professional arc.

Transitioning from PSU background to business roles needs a strong narrative, covering your professional (and personal) experiences, career goals, and how/ why an MBA fits in at this juncture. You may find this success story of a candidate with PSU background who made it to ISB helpful.

Feel free to reach out for a discussion.

Hi adazx,

Nice profile overall! The academic component which includes your BTech and MTech degrees and the more recent GMAT score are strong and prove your ability to handle the academic rigor even though you would be among the more experienced candidates and have not been in study mode for quite some time now.

Regarding your work experience, while you are expected to have expert knowledge about your work, this is a less relevant benefit from an application perspective. B-schools will be more keen on knowing about your leadership skills and the impact you have achieved through your work. This includes leading initiatives, challenging status quo to bring innovation and better ways of doing things, influencing stakeholders for achieving outcomes and improving overall business metrics ( this is a much broader definition of leadership than what you have defined).

Your ECAs are good. All the activities you've mentioned seem to be from your work place. They give you another chance to show team and leadership skills.

Your main task in the application will be to explain why you need an MBA given where you are in your career trajectory and what are your career goals. Do this well, and you should have a solid chance at all your target b-schools.
