Hi Everyone,
I belong to the extra competitive pool of Indians, but thankfully I am not an Engineer.
Here's a bit on my profile
0. Gmat 720 (Q49, V39)
1. Work ex of 3 years as of now, in I-Banking research with a very reknowned MNC.
2. Good career progression.
3. Bachelor's in Economics, with average grades.
I want to pursue a career in M&A (I-Banking).
Could anyone advice on colleges I should be applying to?
Many thanks in advance!
Hey there,
As you are aware about the competition and also as mentioned you have average grades in your graduation, I would suggest you to consider reatking GMAT if and only if you can add 20-30 points in a minimum case.
While assessing your application, top b-schools looks for candidates who have demonstrated leadership qualities in their professional or personal lives. Leadership qualities don’t necessarily mean leading teams – they could also mean the initiatives you had taken, your achievements, impact-orientation and career progression.
Considering the information you have provided, below mentioned are some of the b-schools you should consider while applying.
Columbia Business School
Wharton School of Business
Chicago Booth
NYU Stern
Georgetown McDonough
Cass Business School
Though it's tough to receive calls from top 3 b-schools if in case you add 20-30 points in your GMAT it would slightly be helpful.Top B-Schools like Harvard, Stanford Wharton looks an ideal candidates carrying High Academic Ability, Impact Leadership and communication skills, Clarity of Goals and Contribution and Passionate. Make sure you build an excellent story and present it in a very professional and simple language. Try to stand out rather fitting in which makes your profile unique.
