Hi Shriyek,

You fall in the border for the programs you mention. There are some people with your GMAT score who've made it to these schools and some who have not. A lot depends on the nature of your work experience, and its quality.

Please feel free to get in touch using the "schedule a free profile evaluation call" link below if you want to discuss further.

Regards,
Karthik

Dear all

Hello, I would request you to kindly review my profile and suggest the further course of action as I am unsure of what to do.
I have just given my GMAT exam and do not know whether I have enough time to apply. This is a peak time for applying as most of the application deadlines are near. Thus, kindly suggest a course of Action.

GMAT Score (Oct 2018) - 710 (Q - 48, V - 40)
Currently working in Honda Cars India Ltd in Logistics Dept.
Graduation - B.Tech in ME (75% passing percentage overall) from GBPEC, Pauri (A State Govt. affiliated college)
12th Percentage - 89% (ICSE)
10th Percentage - 94% (ICSE)

Not much in extra-curricular activities as have participated only in School/College level.

I am targeting ISB and IIMs for and Executive MBA in Operations.
Is my target achievable with such less time remaining?
Is my target far fetched?
What else I can target with this profile and score?

Kindly guide me.

Thanks for the reply
I am sorry, maybe I was too worried so I forgot to mention the other essential details to work with

10th completed in 2008
12th completed in 2010
College completed in 2014
Current status - Working in Honda Cars India (2014 - till now)
Total working experience as of Oct 2018 - 50 months

Working profile - Parts Logistic and Control as a part of Supply Chain Management.
Currently I have not decided what to pursue. But looking forward to Operations/SCM and Consultancy.

Are any other options open for me?

Thank You

Hello shriyek

No new qualitative info has been added except 50 months of work ex.
Regarding other 'options' being open for you- not sure what that means. Do you mean other schools? Then yes of course, several other schools are open for you as an option.
If you mean career options- then mostly a career path should be realistic and organic (mist link with your past and transferable skills) and must fit the profile of the B School. If you work in the ligistics function- SCM, Ops and Production/Manufacturing make the most sense in terms of industry but there are several roles that you could target say General Management, Business Development or even consulting to name a few. It would highly depend on your future plans.

Best
