Hello guys,
Thanks a lot for taking time to look into my profile. I still have about 2 weeks to give my GMAT.
Now i am kind of more confused becuase, i am scoring around 680-700 in mock tests,i am not sure if i can get target score.
On other side, i dont have much experience in writing essays or cover letters (this is my first time), because back in india i didnt for my bachelors and till now i only did CV for internships and job inteviews
So i am not sure how i am supposed to approach these.
Now the real question: as i mentioned above i have 6 days after i give my GMAT.
So should i do everthing on my own and give it a shot ? or should i consult somebody ?, If i consult somebody what happens if i dont get a good score ?
Should i apply this cycle ? because i didnt had time to reach out to alumni, professors or adcom at MIT.
Or should i take risk and apply next year, by that time i think i will be able to get good score, networking or maybe i can improve my profile.
even if i am successful in convincing my boss (my contract ends next august and usually they extend it in 3 year increments, i should convince him to extend mine by one year and break for 2 years and sponsorship too),
next year would be my last chance for LGO or any school (If i dont get admission from LGO, i have to choose other), but that is not the case if i apply this year because i can apply one more time if i get a rejection.
but i dont know if re application is a good idea.

A lot depends on your GMAT score. Your work experience is on the lower side too. So yes, your target schools might be a stretch. That said, good essays can build an impressive profile and I can help you with that. Do DM to discuss further.
