Based on the trends, Indian male engineers typically need a GMAT score in the 720+ range to stay competitive, provided they also present a strong overall profile.
hypothetically, what would a russian male economist need :>

Hypothetically : ) a 645–675 GMAT Focus could be viable if other parts of the application are outstanding, but it might be risky as well in a competitive round or for overrepresented groups. Depends on many other factors...

In the past, we’ve had the privilege of working with applicants who secured INSEAD admission with scores as low as 630, 640, thanks to strong, well-crafted profiles. So yes, great outcomes are possible when you put in the right effort and present a compelling story. With the right strategy, magic does happen.

HEC Aspirant here - 30M, Indian, Data Scientist. Confused between Sep vs Jan Intake.
Haven't taken the GMAT though, prepping right now.

Would appreciate any tips for Essays.

Note: I tried to start the application, but apparently it is still not open for Sep-26.

Nice score AKKAMI- ! Your GMAT score should be less than 5 years old, prior to your application. Beyond that, you’ll need to retake the test.

HEC MBA Jan intake provides the optionality to complete in 12 or 16 months, however, this decision can be made after you join the program i.e. not at the application stage.
