Dear Forum Members,

Thank you for being a lovely community. This forum has been very helpful to me so far.

I will be giving my GMAT in 2 weeks. I have consistently scored 720-740 in all the 6 mocks that I have taken so far, with 4/6 being 730, 1/6 being 740 and the other 720.

Below is my brief profile:

Academics:
1. Class X: 88%
2. Class XII: 81.2%
3. B. Tech: 61%
4. PGDM: Awarded the scholarship of academic excellence (5/160 students)

Work Ex:
1. TCS: 2.5 years (worked for a multinational automotive client with operations across all continents)
2. Consultant to Government (India): 2 years
3. Own Startup (Innovation Strategy Consultancy for the social impact sector) - Founder & CEO: 3 years with international clients (worked with clients across four continents)
4. KPMG (Sr. Consultant in the Government & Public Sector practice): 1.3 years

Extracurriculars: Strong (been an active organizer of various events, strong volunteering experience (NGO), founded a student-run NGO in undergrad etc.)

Post MBA Goals: Management Consulting - Impact Consulting

Please suggest the following:
1. Good B Schools to target (preference for 1 year programmes)
2. Any points I need to highlight in my application
3. Anything that I need to be wary of

Ontherox Hope you are doing great

Interesting profile at first sight. I see a good progression in your career and also a range of experience from IT to social impact consulting.

It would be nice to reflect on the pivotal moments in your career that led you gradually into social and then public sector consulting. From gaining deep insight into the workings, policies, and legal frameworks of government, to understanding how the public sector works and the challenges it faces, to learning the basics of running a startup, including business development and operations management, while gaining resilience and adaptability in the ever-changing entrepreneurial landscape. Acquiring knowledge of consulting methods would have further enhanced your comprehensive understanding of the social or public sector and its various facets, including the importance of responsible business practices.

1. Good B Schools to target (preference for 1 year programs)

I see you mentioned PGDM. Are you aiming for a 2nd MBA? That is not clear because it you do have a PGDM, that changes the approach needed.

I think you are a good fit for IIMA, ISB, ISB if targeting Indian B Schools. In order to suggest any programs abroad I would have to learn more regarding your preferences and motivations.

2. Any points I need to highlight in my application

Research your post MBA/PGP goals well.

3. Anything that I need to be wary of

Many things. But to begin with, research your target schools well and that should help you craft a custom strategy for each school.

Feel free to connect for further advice

Best wishes
