Hi,
I am looking forward to joining the MBA in the upcoming year 2024.
I am an Aerospace engineer who passed out in 2014, turned a start-up entrepreneur in 2017, have a proven track record of raising funds from venture capitalists, building quality teams, scaling products, and turning profitable. I had to take an exit from the venture due to COVID. Since Sep 2021, have been working in the founder’s office at Fynd, backed by google, and acquired by Reliance (Fortune 500). I am heading growth and business for one of their business units and the tech product transformation for another business unit
I am planning to quit my job on 01st May 2023 and start up again, so while applying to the universities I will be a second-time startup entrepreneur in the early days of my second venture. I want to learn the best about business from their institutions and get back to my venture and scale it.
How will the Admission Committee view this and its overall impact on the MBA candidature?
PS: My target schools are INSEAD, GSB, Wharton, Chicago Booth, Haas, Kellogg, Columbia, LBS, and Sloan

overall a good summary..
at this moment focus on gmat as in the present world there are many such stories especially with the boom of entrepreneurs in India
reason for why, why now and what later will you do with MBA you should be clear of..
for the list of schools you mentioned target 720 + to secure interview invite..

Hi RizvanBas , thanks for reaching out to Stratus! I'd be happy to answer your questions.
Sounds like you've been on quite the journey. Depending on how your GMAT goes, I'd be in a better position to help you narrow down reach/target/safety schools. Given your age and work experience, you may be better poised for an executive or part time MBA--that would also enable you to spend more time building your venture.
As far as how schools would view your plans, I think you could tell a compelling story around how you'll leverage the school's startup offerings and network to scale your venture. If they feel like you're going places and they can help, they're going to want to hitch their brand onto you.
If you want to reach out for a free consult, I or anyone on our Stratus team would be glad to explain more about the steps you should be taking to get to your best applications. I see some great, unique elements in your profile. Creating a compelling narrative is something we help our clients with every single day--connecting the dots from your past to where you want to go in your future will help the adcom determine how much they want to invest in your story.
