HI,

I am presently working on solving the problem of making high quality water purifiers affordable and accessible in India. As of date each year close to 500,000 children under the age of 5 die due to water borne diseases in India. Moreover billions of dollars are spent on water borne diseases in India. These were the reasons that pulled me into this stream. I am the the Founder and CEO of Hiker Appliances. Having trial tested the market demand we are now rapidly scaling up our operations both over ecommerce portals as well as offline distribution channels in India.

In the past I have worked for Tata Steel India as a project manager. Tata Steel is building new steel plants in India, and as a project manager where there was once barren land, I installed complex plants up and running. As a project manager I have negotiated contracts, hired contractors, set targets and led teams towards achieving the goal on time. It was this skill that helped me later when I flew to China to set up contract manufacturing for my products.

I have graduated from Indian Institute of Technology - BHU, Varanasi which is one the finest engineering colleges in india.

I intend to get an MBA and get back to scale up my company. In the long run I aim to solve the big problems that are plaguing my nation and drinking water is one of them.

GMAT - 710 (Q49,V37)

Btech - Indian Institute of Technology (BHU) - Varanasi. India

This year am applying to Stanford, MIT Sloan and Kellogg in R1. Please could instruct if these schools are well within my targets and vision or are they a stretch.

Hi there, thanks for posting. First off, there's a lot more information I'd ideally like in order to fully evaluate your profile. For instance, you did indeed go to a great college but what kind of marks did you get? Were you involved in any extracurriculars? Do you have any now? How much work experience do you have and have you been a top performer with good progression? Your company does sound quite interesting and I can see why an MBA would help you to scale up the business.

Stanford will be very tough...it's a reach for most applicants because they are so selective. Kellogg and MIT are both very competitive too, so it will depend on some of the factors above. Your GMAT is good but at schools at that level, the averages are closer to 730 so I'd really like your score to be a bit higher. Perhaps consider adding a few schools outside the top 10 just to balance out your choices. Also, since your plan is to return to your business, perhaps consider an accelerated one-year program (like at Kellogg or Cornell).

Good luck and keep us posted if we can help!
