9. Other information relevant to your profile: I understand my education is not related to my work profile but I always give me 100% in everything I do. There is no specific excuse for this mess. I wanted to do civil engineering but since construction market was down when I passed out from college, there was no jobs, I got an offer from amazon for analytical associate role(thanks to my interest in math) which I find better suited at that time for a short period. After joining Amazon, I realized there are ocean of opportunities at Amazon and I can make my career in this field. I have a rapid growth at Amazon but I know an MBA from top B-school can fast forward my career by at least 3 years to reach to the same position. Chance to get settled abroad is another reason for my B-school selections.
Any specific questions you would like answered by our team: No specific reason, Maximum review asked for profile evaluation on gmatclub is on your thread. I want the best evaluation of my profile which can show me the real picture.
Note: Without an scholarship, it is impossible for me to do MBA(Due to financial background). Need advice/assistance for the same.
