Hi everyone,
super grateful for all the information here. Would love some feedback on my application as well.
-Indian, male,28, Chemical Engineer, born and brought up in India.
- Graduated in 2012, top of my class, 74%( I'm not quite sure how to convert this to a GPA) The official scale seems to think its a 2.3, but considering its a 99% percentile back in India, I'm confused.
- 770 GMAT ( Q50 V46)
-Black belt in Karate
-Captain of high school and college soccer teams.

Im a little worried about not having too many extra curriculars since I started working - will this really matter ?
Overall, what do you guys think about my chances ? And I know I'm jumping the gun a little, but considering my demography, the fact that I'm in no way a minority, do I have any shot at all at scholarships ( If i do by some miracle manage to get in ) ? The thought of being 80,000 euros in debt scares me
