Hi Ms. Blackman,
I completed my GMAT journey with a not so stellar performance. It would be so kind of you if you could answer my questions after taking a brief look at my profile.
Work Experience :
1. 5 years Indian Information Technology Company
2. Out of those 5 years 1 year in India, 6 months in London,UK and 3.5 years (and counting) in two different cities of USA.
3. Current role as module leader for a Business Intelligence project managing 5 people offshore.
Academics : Completed Engineering in Computer Science in 2004 form one very unknown engineering college with cgpa as 8.7/10.
GMAT : 720 ( q44
V 45 )
Interests and achievements :
1. The youngest member of Business Intelligence Centre of Excellence who took part in a pre-sales presentation
2. Client accolades in current project
beyond professional:(and it looks like a long list)
Hobbies in different streams of arts such as : certain genre of music (Gothic Metal, '70's rock, American Folk music, Western Classical, Ghazal)
Certain Authors (Gabrile Garcia marquaez,Stephen King,James Joyce, Richard Yates,Philip K Dick...)
Certain genre of movies and movimakers(David Cronenberg,Federico Fellini,Ang Lee,P T Anderson...)
Certain genre of painting (Impressionism and post-impressionism specially paintings of Cezanne)
Community activity:
Associated with the city's biggest NPO for last one year.
Conducted two CSR initiative for my organization and another one coming in Sep.
That's it.
Thanks a lot for your patient reading this far. Now I have certain questions as listed below.Please oblige me by replying.
List of school selected with reasons :
1. Indiana University (Marketing/Brand Management is all I wanna do, with this score and profile Kellogg/Ross seems to be impossible, therefore)
2. Indian School of Business ( Good ROI, emerging market)
3. NUS ( same as ISB)
4. Georgia Tech (Seems like they hate Indian IT male a little less and if not in marketing IT with prior exp is a safe bet postMBA)
5.Purdue (being in midwest and not eligible for booth/kellogg ...purdue is the last respectable option left)
6.Austin Texas (Again for good job profile in IT post-MBA although it sounds like a stretch already)
So my question is depending on my profile and with the fact that I belong to that Indian IT pool, what do you think about my school selection?
Thanks and Regards,
