Dear Stubbornp,

Thanks for your post!

As far as assessing your chances at these schools, I'm afraid to say that you haven't really offered enough information to go on here. For example, I'd need to know the following in order to better assess your chances:

-how did you do as an undergraduate?
-what school you attended? (in India? one of the IITs? in the USA?)
-what is the the exact nature of your work experience?
-have you had any promotions or notable managerial responsibilities?
-what you are hoping to do post MBA?
-you mention you would like to study finance...is this related to your goals?
-if so, how does finance relate to your experiences to date?

In terms of the information you have provided, your GMAT result is average-to-below-average across the schools you are targeting. In additon, as I suspect you are aware, you fall into an over-represented group in the MBA applicant pool (Indian male working in the IT sector), which will make admission a bit more challenging. Having said that, I'd really need to know the answers to the questions above to give you a complete assessment.

Feel free to reply with answers or simply email your resume to [email protected] if you'd like to set up a free initial consultation with one of our team members.

Best of luck,

Graham
