Hi guys,

This is my first post on this forum...i am a member of pagalguy forum. The following my profile. Please tell me whether i stand a chance and what all things i need to do to improve my profile.

Present:

Working in India's top communication software comp.
Designation as senior sw engg.
2.5 years of exp. (obviously, i was quickly promoted)
Have been to US for design presentation to client
Hold a valid multiple entry visa for 10 years

Education:

BS in Computer Sc. with 65% marks
4th rank (among 70 students) in class in 2 semesters
9th rank overall in college ( i dont know what the GPA would be)
However, my College was not the top-of the line

Extras

Excellent scores in school
Scholar badges for 5 ysr consecutively

Active role in debates etc.
President of college computers club


Now, tell me what kind of schools i should look at. I havent taken the GMAT.

Also whar *extars* i need to add...something like learning a language etc etc.


Assuming you have a GMAT score at or above the following schools' average for accepted students, consider CMU, MIT, Michigan, Duke, UT, Haas. There are transcripts of MBA admissions chatsif you click on the link.

In terms of extras, the schools value initiative, leadership, and teamwork. So you want to make sure that your profile includes those qualities. IN addition, the schools like people who are well-rounded, contribute to their communities, and don't just work. So make sure you have a hobby or two and do contribute to your community. Certainly a foreign language and international experience are also valued, but don't forget about community service or non-professional interests.

I sense that you are planning to apply next fall and you might be interested in our ebook Best Practices for 2005 MBA Admission.

Good luck!
