Future Plans
As clique as it may sound, I wish to bring about an impact by combining my passion for travelling and social entrepreneurship.
I believe this would open up an array of opportunities to learn from fellow MBA students (If I get in) and implement those perspectives into my decision-making process and in some minuscule way, push the society towards global progress.

So far, I have been scoring between the range of 680 - 730 in the GMAT Practise Tests and hope to score above the 700+ level.

Please let me know your views and my chances of getting admitted.
