Hi Arvind - thanks for writing! A few questions so that I can better assess your profile:
1.) what are your post-MBA goals? Since you are on the upper end of work experience, you'll want to explain in your applications why now is the best time for you to undertake an MBA.
2.) Are you involved in any activities outside of work?
For McCombs, given how competitive this program and other Top 20 U.S. schools are for Indian applicants, I would see if you can increase your GMAT score. I think your score will work for the other programs you have listed.
Thanks!

Hi Nisha,
Thanks for reaching out!
1) In brief, the main reason for me to pursue an MBA at this stage of my career is mainly to switch the path of my career. I have been associated with analytics since I have been working and now I feel that, combined with my analytics/data science experience, I can add a lot of more value to decision making in an organisation. Moreover, analytics is a service industry with a lot of clients. Having been exposed to almost all of them, I now want to augment my retail industry knowledge and an MBA will help me achieve that.
2) I am a seasoned theatre artist and have also undertake various endeavours with regards to children's education and theatre
I intend to apply with the 690 score that I have. It would be really helpful if you can you also suggest some other good schools in which I have a fair shot of making it.
