Hiya,
Recently I started to seriously think about doing MBA and would like to start it on a right foot. Greatly appreciate if you could share thoughts about my profile and how I can improve it.
Nationality: India
Location: Singapore ( past 5 years)
Age: 28
GPA: 3 -3.5 (not sure as my university did not grade GPA). It says "
Passed with First Class"
GMAT: shooting for 720-730.
WE:
Front Office Senior Consultant in Capital Market Product company. Frequently travel to different location and meet client. Did coding previously now moved to BA role. Close to 7 years experience in Finance and IT.
Professional Certification:
Passed FRM (Financial Risk Manager) exams and earned right to use designation in 2015.
Appeared for CFA Level II exam last week. (Think I will clear it)
Volunteer Experience
Almost nothing as I travel frequently. Use to donate blood now and then.
MBA Plans: Move up the ladder with a focus on continuing within Finance Industry. MBB Consulting or move to other domain in Finance (Private Equity or M&A)
Planning on applying to:
Mainly targeting INSEAD for 2 reasons 1) Among top universities with 1 yr program given that I will be over 29 before admission 2) They have campus in SG
Haven't thought of other universities yet. Will research more on that as I dive deep into preparation.
Will be applying for 2017 Fall cycle!
Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
