Hi there,
I was wondering if any professionals could take a look at my profile and provide some feedback. I am interested in pursuing a full time MBA program.
Background: 34 yrs old, Indian male.
Undergraduate Degree: B. Tech. - Industrial Engineering, GPA-3.80/4.00
Graduate Degree: M.S. - Industrial Technology, GPA 4.00/4.00 (Dean's medal nominee, Graduate student of the year Award)
GMAT: 670 (Q45, V38), AWA : 5.0
Work Experience: 11 yrs in Manufacturing/Operations.
-I worked in India with an automotive giant for 3 yrs in the capacities of Industrial Engineer and Quality Engineer. I did not lead any teams there. Most of the projects involved individual efforts, however I did interact extensively with all levels of management, shop floor workers and customers.
-I have been working with a manufacturing company here in United States from last 8 years. For first 3 years, I worked as an Industrial Engineer and from last 5 years, I have been working as a Production Supervisor, leading a team of 24 associates. I have solid accomplishments at both jobs.
Extra-Curricular:
-I have been a sportsman all my life. I competed multiple times at National Level Gymnastics championships, got a green belt in Judo and have been playing volleyball since college. My volleyball team participates in annual charity fundraiser.
-Have been instrumental in fund raising efforts for a non profit since its inception. This non profit runs a shelter for orphan children in India.
I understand my age could be an issue for a full time program and my GMAT score could be an issue for top schools. However, I am interested in finding out US schools that could be within my reach with my given profile and if there is anything I could do to improve my profile at this point.
Thank you very much!
