Hi Everyone, can you please review my profile for R1 of 2027 intake. Be as brutal as you can in your evaluation. Thank you.
These are my preferred universities, in no particular order - LBS, HEC, Columbia NY, NYU, Insead, Kellogg and IESE
Indian, Female, 28
Academics:
12th - 94% (CBSE)
UG - B Com - 7.1 CGPA from Symbiosis College of Arts and Commerce (Pune University)(Tier 1.5)
I've also completed my ACCA (UK) and CPA (US)(CA equivalent in UK& US)
Further, I've done my PGD in Public Accounting and PGC in Finance (only because they were required for my CPA eligibility)
Work experience (8 years):
- 8 years experience in Big4 audit
- 2 years as audit assistant, 1 year as audit senior assistant, 3 years as senior and 2 years as manager
- Co-founded a women’s lingerie brand six months ago.
GRE- Yet to give (plan to give in June 2026)
Volunteering:
- I have volunteered with few NGOs (including Blue Cross) which aim to provide shelter, food and healthcare for stray and abandoned dogs. I've been a part of vaccination drives, adoption drives and multiple awareness campaigns.
- I've done multiple outreach activities like teaching young underprivileged children, providing sanitation and health education to people in slum areas during my college and early work days.
Career Goal:
I want to move more into a CFO route in a different geography. I am also open to other fields (to explore). The goal is for me to learn all Aspects of building and scaling a business as in the long term I want to be an entrepreneur and probably continue the journey I have started with my lingerie brand.
I understand that essays with compelling stories can take an MBA profile a long way. But I want help in deciding few things:
- Is my profile worthy enough to apply to these business schools? How can I improve my profile further?
- Is scholarship a possibility? Scholarship can be a big game changer for me considering the financial burden these courses can put one under.
- what should be my target GRE score? (Planning to take it in June)
- I will be taking a loan to fund my education. With the soaring exchange rates and increase in AI adoption, do you think spending so much on MBA right now specially on these schools is worth it?
Your feedback is extremely valuable to me. Thank you.
