Hi Jon
I was hoping you can give me some advice on whether applying in round 3 of ROSS MSCM program even worthwhile?
Does the school even select students from round 3?

Owner of Polymer India- We deal with various types of industrial packaging products(like Pail Containers, Hdpe bottles, Pet bottles, Hdpe Drums) & Recycling plastic raw material(HDPE, LDPE, PP). Our suppliers are companies who deal with pesticides and chemicals, so quality has been one of our trademark from the very first day.
P.S- This is not a family business. It's an enterprise started solely by me after my graduation.
Key Responsibilities-
Maintaining relationships with suppliers as well as distributors.
Manage the stock of purchased raw material and supply of the finished products.
Held numerous training seminars to teach as well as learn from the staff of manufacturing unit as well as office staff- These seminars not only increased the knowledge of everyone but increased productivity and led to better team work and understanding in everyone.
Ensuring product specifications and quality remain up to date.
Devising new promotional activities and schemes for marketing the products.
Ensuring all the billing and paperwork is done in a systematic way.
Achievements-
Increasing the product portfolio from five products in 2012 to more than fifty products today.
Improved designs and high quality increased the turnover by more than 200% in three years(In the first year, i designed a mold of pail container which not only reduced the weight of the container by more than a 100grams but also maintained the same strength- a design which is followed by all our competitors today)
Reducing the manufacturing costs by more than 50% in the span of two years.
The growth of the team from five members in 2012 to more than thirty members today.
Other Activities-
Presently learning French- course A1
Worked on a project titled "Benchmarking Automobile Industry" for Mahle Filters India for 4 months
Stood first in Junkyard competition organised by our University
Stood first in Treasure hunt competition organised in the university.

Well, the true answer is: why not just wait till Round one of the next season? Round three is really not recommended, unless you have a VERY very good reason or are a very very strong candidate.

Thanks for the reply Jon.
My aim is to do MSCM, work for 2-3 years and then go for an MBA.
That's why dropping another year is not an option for me.
Seeing my profile, do you think i cn have a chance?
