I am an Indian IT professional, following are my details:
GMAT Score: 720 (Q49, V40)
Work Experience: 75 months
Grade in PG: 2.63/4.33
Grade in UG: 8.15/10
I wanted to apply for Oxford in the last round, i.e. the one ending on 23rd March.
Could anyone tell me if I have any chance of being called for an interview or is it just going to be a wasted application at this stage?
Hi, I attended a couple of fireside chats with the Adcom and talked to several alumni, and here goes my advice:
1. 720 is a competitive GMAT score for Said, even in the later rounds. However, since your GPAs seem a bit low, better if you have an extremely high GMAT score to kinda offset it.
2. Though the acceptance rates are pretty stable among all rounds, one factor that would significantly put you at a disadvantage is DIVERSITY, especially considering that you are an Indian from the IT industry. Very likely the program has already admitted many applicants with similar profiles in earlier rounds.
I would suggest that you apply early for the 2023 intake. Good luck to all of us!
