B-Schools in Asia

by dnyanesh2909 » Fri Sep 14, 2012 7:45 pm
Hello folks,

I am planning to apply to mid tier B-Schools in Asia namely ISB / NUS / NTU / SMU and INSEAD Singapore (this one is not mid-tier). My profile is,

GMAT score - 720 (VA-93, QA-78, AWA-6)
Work Ex - Project Execution, Operations (Oil&Gas) = 3 years
Employer = GAIL (India) Ltd - a leading Natural Gas transmission utility in Asia
Under grad = BE (hons) Mechanical Engineering from BITS,Pilani - Goa Campus
CGPA = 6.97/10
12th marks = 88.67 / 100
Extra Curriculars = Sports and Event Management
Since I am interested in finance, I have also appeared and cleared 2 levels of CFA exam. Planning to appear for Level 3 in June 2013.
Post MBA - Finance or Consulting

Please help me evaluate my chances for these B-schools (esp INSEAD / NUS / NTU). Outside of India, I am very keen to work in Singapore.

How good are the prospects of an MBA from NUS / NTU for a career in finance?
Also, how does SMU compare with the other mentioned univs. Haven't heard much of it.

I have a very exalted opinion of work and life in Singapore. Can someone tell me how it actually is?

Thanks a ton in advance!
