Hi,
I would request you to kindly evaluate my profile and suggest the best suited business schools for me.
GMAT: Nothing to write home about, multiple attempts and highest score 610
Work profile: 7.8 Yrs work ex in IT/Software Services including 5.4 yrs with Financial Mortgage services company. Currently working as senior project lead with a telecom vendor ranked among top 3 in the world. I have been in leadership role for 3.5 years now with team size varying from 5 - 12 members depending on project.
Education: B.E (Non IIT college, India)
GPA: Below par (My performance was affected by some personal problems at the time).
Extra Curricular: I have been involved with a NGO for over 3 years where we take care of street children, children with special abilities. The NGO is now working on a self-sustainable model with minimum donations. I have also been been the school captain in my higher secondary days and have multiple awards in various sporting and cultural activities. There is a little more in this list.
Post MBA goal: To work with leading PE/VC firm.
Long Term (2-3 Yrs after MBA): Join my family to expand our firm into a respected REAL Estate company.
Recommendations: VP from my previous organisation will recommend me and one recommendation from my first manager.
I have always wanted to do my MBA from among the top 20 schools. Can I look to apply to some good schools or would you recommend taking another dig on GMAT (4th time).
Thanks,
Vishal
