Hello Sir/Ma'am...i would be obliged if you could help with my profile evaluation.


I wanted some advice on my profile and my chances to these big b schools as I plan to apply to HBS 2+2, IESE-YTP and maybe Stanford GBS with a 2 year deferral option....I recently applied to ISB-YLP program and have been shortlisted for stage 2...my GMAT is due for august.

2. Community Service-

interviews with the company HR.

7. Selected by Ericsson for their empower program...which will lead to an on campus placement later.

I am hopeful that my final year project (topic:Solar Cell-increasing productivity) will get published in one of the national journals... or most probably IEEE.

Do I stand a chance among the other applicants who have a stellar profile and excellent graduation GPA!!

Thanks for your valuable time addressing my query..!

Well, the competition is tough! But you do have a really full profile which is awesome. The grades could be better, and will make things a bit tough (which is why it is SOOOO important that you ace the GMAT). But a lot will also depend on your story; on how you will weave all of these elements together to make yourself a compelling candidate for these super-competitive programs.
