Hi All,
I am preparing for GMAT. I am targeting Ross, Duke (Top 2 schools)
Please review my profile and suggest whether I have a good chance at above mentioned schools or i should wait for another year.
Indian Male (Working in Detroit)
Age = 27 years
Education:
- MS Automotive engineering - Clemson University (SC. USA) (3.3 GPA)
- B.E Mechanical Engineering (71% - Distinction) with specialization in Automotive engineering
- Class XII: 85% (Maharashtra State Board)
- Class X: 85%
Work Experience:
- Worked as Assistant Manager at Asia Motor Works Ltd (Mumbai, India) in Sales and Marketing Division for one year.
- Worked as Systems Engineer for Ford Motor Company in Detroit for 2.2 Years. Handled V8 engine OPD for North America.
- Will start work as Advanced Box Engineer (Powertrain Integration) for Chrysler from tomorrow.
I guess by the time I apply for B school, I would have completed 7 months at Chrysler.
Total Experience :- 3.9 Years (Not counting Masters Degree)
Extra-curricular activities:
- Member of an NGO in India for women education (active participant)
- Played club cricket in India and USA
-Several tech and cultural competition participation during Undergrad and Grad school.
I would like advise from the experienced members here. Should I apply for admission in Fall 2016 or I should wait for another year and apply for Fall 2017 Intake.
I am targeting a GMAT score of 700 and planning to give in August 2015.
I really appreciate your help.

Hi Mechy,
You are going to fall within the age/ work experience range of both these (and others) b-schools by the time you matriculate in Fall 2016 (28+ years and 4.9 years work experience). Applying this year will be a good idea.
Target a higher score, somewhere near 730+. It will be crucial to score well on GMAT as your undergrad marks are average.
Also add a couple of other b-schools to your list. It can be risky applying to just two b-schools.
