Hi, I am a 29 years old female, working with a KPO of a leading consulting Firm as a Finance Analyst. I have a post qualification experience of 4 years after my MBA from a not-so-good b-school. I now want to enhance my career path by doing an executive MBA. I would like to know my chances of getting selected if I manage a GMAT score of 700+.
My academics have been average and have not been very involve with extra curricular activities. This might sound as if I have bever worked hard but thats not the case. I come from a background where no one had ever heard of an MBA when I decided to go for one. I went for an MBA just after my graduation (BBA) because the circumstances were such that there was no time to even think about a job that time. My actions were largely impacted by adverse family conditions till the time I got into MBA but after 4 years of work experience, I know that I want to go for an MBA that I could actually utilize to enhance my career.
Can someone please guide me on whether I should try for an executive MBA, at all, given the ordinary profile that I carry ?
Thanks
Priyanka

Female applicant with a prior MBA evaluates chances for an executive MBA.
Hi Priyanka,
Congratulations on obtaining the first MBA degree. It sounds like you had a lot of challenges to overcome to complete your MBA. In spite of all those, still achieving your goal is remarkable. Nice work!
Before guiding you on whether to obtain an executive MBA, I wonder if you have a well-defined set of post-MBA career goals in mind. When you say enhance your career, do you have a set ambition that you were thinking of achieving? This is extremely important for all applications, and more so in your case, since you have to demonstrate that your goals have led you to decide to pursue a second MBA, since the first MBA could not help you achieve them.
Based on that, we could help you figure out what kind of program will be the best fit, the schools that you are competitive at, as well as how to best explain your previous MBA and reasons driving you to obtain a second one.
If you are just starting the MBA application process, I would recommend our 10-page report for Candidate Profiling and School Selection. This comprehensive report offers you the opportunity to go through a mini application process that will help to evaluate your profile and recommend a set of schools that is best suited to your needs.
If you would like to discuss this further, go ahead and post a question in the Ask My MBA Admit thread in this forum or drop us a line at [email protected] to set up a Free Initial Consultation. Also check out our Application Packages and Volume Discounts tailored to help with your admission needs.

Hi Khyati,
I am resending my reply. Hope it reaches the right place this time
Hi,
Thanks a lot for the reply !
Yes, I have a goal that I want to achieve through a second MBA.
Now when I say career enhancement, I do not just mean a career shift. Having done an MBA without prior work experience has made me understand the importance of the latter, even better. I remember not being able to relate to the experiences that professionals in my MBA classes used to share. Only a corporate world experience makes you appreciate the kind of learning environment that an MBA provides, rather even realise the plethora of opportunities that exist. Now that I have a w/e of 4 years, I want to go back to the class and see & learn everything with a new perspective. I see this as a very valuable investment in myself. Having worked on various assignments during my experience and having realised my area of interest, I have an aim of achieving a senior management position in Corporate Strategy. This is a huge career shift and an MBA in Finance degree from a tier-2 b-school with experience in a KPO, has made it almost impossible to achieve my aim.
Your thoughts on this would be highly appreciated
Thanks a lot again !
