Hi
pocketacescracked,
Thank you for sharing your profile. Talking about your acads, you've got a strong GPA, keep it up! And, along with a solid GMAT score, it is exhibiting your good academic potential.
On the work front, you need to showcase your internship experiences and learnings from them. Show the obstacles you faced during your internship and how you hit the ground. Explain the roles and responsibilities and your commitment to the organisation. Well, your ECs are fine. I can see the leadership qualities in your profile that will demonstrate your leadership traits. Also, speak about your writing experiences, too.
Deferred MBA Programs are highly competitive, you must possess leadership, intellect, critical thinking with an exceptional contribution to the community. If you like, you can have a look at other deferred MBA programs
here with their deadlines and criteria. It will help you to get better clarity of which schools should apply.
Overall, you have a decent profile but I do not see the impact in your profile right now. I'd say that try to get some impactful experiences that will reflect your beliefs and mission.
If you like we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and answer any of your concerns. Feel free to
book a free session with us as per your convenience.
Cheers!
