Hi ansarose,

Your GMAT score is slightly on the lower side but it's important to understand that GMAT is not the only criteria to get an admit in B-Schools. Considering your profile and all the credentials you have mentioned above, You need to focus more on application essays and your strengths rather than worrying about your GMAT score.

B-Schools looks for candidates carrying high academic ability, leadership qualities, communication skills, clarity of goals, and Contribution and Passionate. Make sure you build an excellent story and present it in a very professional and simple language.

You can also have a good chance in SMU and NUS (targeting marketing jobs).

Feel free to reach us for free profile evaluations or to discuss with our admissions expert.

Hello ansarose,

With your current GMAT score, you could target SMU for the Jan '23 intake. If you are looking at higher-ranked programs, we would recommend that you re-take the GMAT.

Needless to say, the GMAT is only one component of the process and you will also need to work on defining your career goals and portraying how your experiences coupled with the MBA will help you achieve the same.

All the best!

Hi sarthakkhurana01,

Thank you for sharing your profile. Your profile looks good on the surface. Starting with the stats, your undergrad GPA is low, and you have a quite good GMAT score. As you are planning to retake, try to aim 720+ to maximize your chances. In terms of work experience, you have less than the average required. You didn't provide much detail here, but if your work experience is impactful and you have anecdotes to back up your abilities, you have a good chance. Quality beats quantity every time. If you target the right schools and demonstrate the five attributes described below successfully in your MBA application essays, CV, and recommendations, you may still have a chance of getting into a top business school:

1) Positive, practical reasons for applying at this time.
2) Outstanding professional development.
3) Outstanding impact, leadership, and success.
4) Maturity
5) Ability to contribute to the program both socially and academically.

Your ECs are interesting. Startup and involvement in an NGO, in particular, sound great. However, you may quickly incorporate extra work duties into your current job (assuming more of a leadership role, taking on new projects, etc.). You may want to read an article on MBA with little work experience. This article will help you understand the importance of applications and how with an MBA with little work experience, you can still make the strongest case for yourself and enhance your chances at your dream business school. Overall, a good profile, but I'd like to learn more about your work experience to identify your significant USPs. If you’d like, we are happy to hop on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and shortlist the right schools for you. Feel free to book a free session with us as per your convenience.

Cheers!
