Hello,

I had already requested for a profile evaluation here

However, I would like to narrow down my search in this post. I want to emigrate with my spouse where she also can work full time while I study.

Given my profile and above requirement, what are the schools and countries I can target?

P.S. I had initially thought about only one year programs but since 2 year programs are more immigration friendly, I wouldn't mind applying for them as well.

Thank you.

Hi sidceg,

U.S. and Canada are two likely countries you may consider, with Canada being faster and easier from emigration perspective. However, if you’re looking at jobs in tech companies, you’ll have a better shot from U.S. schools.

Since you’re from a competitive applicant pool, your target schools shouldn’t be off in terms of median GMAT score. Another thing you can keep in mind while evaluating schools is to look at their recruitment reports and see which of them have high recruitment % in tech industry and within the industry do top companies recruit there. Amazon, for example, recruits in large numbers at several campuses in U.S.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
