I am an Indian Mechanical Engineer with 7 years of work experience. 2 years in factory automation and 5 years in Oil and Gas (Drilling).
GMAT 690, low gpa 3.0. I have extra curricular activities under my belt such as having been in a band (I highly doubtful if this would ount though) and have participated in many marathons and long distance cycling races.
I wish to apply for a Marketing specialization, preferably a 15-18 month course.
Could the experts here please help me with selecting a few colleges in
1. Europe
2. Asia
3. Canada
4. USA
Any inputs would be highly appreciated.

Hello pawanbell1989
Shortlisting a b-school will require much more than just a few bullet points that cover years, industry and acads.
Let us start with Work Ex- More than industry and function a school will be interested in your career progress in these 7 years. Also what are your key achievements and real business impact of your work?
Coming to Acads- Definitely not stellar, especially considering an Indian (who are expected to score high on the GMAT) however, this can be compensated if you have a spike in some other area (say work ex or extracurricular)
All Extracurricular activities can boost your profile as long as there is a Long Term Involvement, Seriousness and a positive impact on you as a person/professional/candidate.
Lastly the most important factor is clarity of goals. You wish to specialize in marketing. What existing transferable skills do you have that will help you switch your function/field (once an MBA is added to it)? Why is an MBA a necessity (and not a marketing course for instance).
Looking at all of the above holistically will present a picture which will make it a bit easier to select schools that fit your overall profile and future ambitions.
Let me know if you wish to discuss this further.

Hi,
Without evaluating your profile, as I assume you might want to still work on that GMAT score for example and since I am really missing a lot of information in order to be able to do that properly I would just like to recommend the following rankings for MBA programs with a marketing specialization:
https://aringo.com/mba-marketing-specialization/
(US only)
And these rankings for 1/1,5 year programs:
https://aringo.com/mba-1y-one-year-programs/
In order to get you started.
Not all the schools and programs listed will fit you of course, but it will give you an idea of some schools to look closer at, at least.
Hope that helps!
