Hi Riya1728,

You have a an impressive profile. Acads are very impactful. With CFA and your undergrad from CBS (a good brand), it puts you in good stead compared with the other applicants. You have experience of both the worlds- a start-up and a large FS firm. Hence, you'd have rich perspectives to share with your peers. Your post-MBA goals should ideally complement this experience, either IB or marching towards the CFO track.
A score of 700+ would complement your overall profile.

All the best!

Cheers,
Manan

Hi Riya1728,

We are happy to help and good luck on your B school planning.

Industry experience – IB, Fin, CFA are very well aligned to put together a comprehensive case, Work experience – Perfectly near avg. range, Extra- curricular well balanced

Focus Areas - A decent GMAT score (690+ range, higher the better), Industry experience (could highlight how this contributes towards experiential learning and classroom discussions)

Well balanced profile which needs to be supported by and adequate GMAT score and supporting essays, right amount of interview preparation, references and concise resume.

Could you please take a moment to fill this feedback (It’s anonymous if you wish so).

https://forms.gle/UowXg3YM4DprGK8YA

Thanks a ton.

Hi, could you please review my profile -

1. GMAT Score - 710
2. Work Experience - 3Y till date - Certified Consultant in Human Capital Management (All projects with an international clientele, if it helps)
3. Industry - BIG4 (Human Capital Consulting)
4. Academics
10th - 88%
12th - 82%
Undergrad - 7.85 CGPA on an absolute scale (6th position in batch)
-> President of Department's technical club
-> Led photography club in last year (Few awards in inter-college exhibitions)
-> Startup during college - posted some profit but we couldn't scale it (14-15 months)
-> All mathematics subjects were cleared with excellent grades(mostly top of class)

5. Background (Engineering / Commerce / Arts etc.)
-> BTech from an older NIT
-> Invested in NGO devoted to imparting education to underprivileged children of migrant workers

Query - GMAT was not given with full preparation and 740 looks realistic. Shall I give it another chance to cover academic scores?

Hi team,

Can you please review my profile below and share your thoughts.

1. GMAT score - Yet to give (scheduled for July 30). Scoring 680-690 in the mocks.
2. Work Exp - 4Y (2Y - IT consulting; 2Y - Software developer).
I resigned from my job recently, my last working day is July 15. I have an idea related to the services offered in commercial photography industry which I'm working on. Plan is to come up with the POC by the ISB interview time.
3. Academics -
B.Tech - ECE from NIT Durgapur. CGPA - 8.65
Intermediate - 95.30% (Andhra Pradesh board)
Tenth - 89.33% (Andhra Pradesh board)
4. Extra curriculars - not so active in the recent past. Received a couple of prizes in poster making competitions at the work place. Few awards during schooling in sports.
5. Hobbies - cooking, playing tennis, playing suicide chess

Post MBA - interested to set-up a company and continue with my idea mentioned above.
This is one reason to opt for MBA.

Thank you.

Any reason why the profile evaluations are being done over a DM? I guess since the users are comfortable sharing their profiles here as a post, it is beneficial for the users to get a response here and the community can learn from it as well.
