Profile Evaluation Request

by Anushri Dixit » Sat Oct 11, 2014 9:37 am
Hello, I appeared for GMAT last week and scored 650 (Q- 46, V- 34). My score on toefl is 110. I wish to apply to US universities for the batch of 2015.
My profile details are as follows:
Currently working for Deloitte
Work Experience: 14 months
Area: Consulting - Working on a project for a leading healthcare company in the US
Background: B.Tech in Information Technology. Published a research paper on Computer Networks in the undergraduate journal.
I wish to pursue an MBA because my strengths are my management skills.

The business schools that I am aiming for are Krannert and Mays. Please evaluate my profile and help me understand what are my chances of getting though to these universities. Also please suggest any other schools which would suit my profile.

Hey there,
Thanks for writing!
So first of all, keep in mind that 14 months is VERY little work experience, and if you decide to apply this year, this will likely weaken your profile. Given the fact that your GMAT score is so-so, but your employer is quite good, you may want to consider whether its not a good idea for you to think about applying R1 next year, and to retake your GMAT. This is especially important as you come from a large, tough applicant pool from which folks apply with amazing GMATs, and you will need to find ways to differentiate your application.

Here's a link with some thoughts about retaking the GMAT, esp. as an Indian candidate: https://admissionado.com/mba/resources/t ... -the-gmat/

Let me know what you think...
All the best,
JF
