Hi Stacy,
I have been following this forum for sometime. You have advised students on school selection based on their profile.
Request your help on the same with my profile.

I am targeting the fall 2010 session. I am from India, male and an engineering graduate. I graduated with 77% marks, not sure the corresponding GPA but will by rough calculations be close to 3.5/4. I work for the largest Indian IT services company and luckily for me I have worked in business analyst and and customer facing project management roles. In total I will have over seven years of experience by the time fall program starts. In addition I have 3 years of international experience in three different countries. Presently working in Canada.

On the weaker side, I have a very low GMAT 660 (Q 47, V35) AWA 5.0,
I have very poor extra curricular's. Basically was only involved with work all this time. And did not realize this would be required for MBA admissions. :-)

I hope to apply to a few schools in US and Canada. Which ones will be right for me?
Will be grateful if you provide your advice.

Thanks

Dear ctarafdar,

I encourage you to spend some time researching schools to determine which are the best fit for you and also where you have the best chance of gaining admission. The sticky on school selection might have some helpful tips for you as well. Generally, you are a competitive applicant for a program where your GPA and GMAT are at or above the average. Since decisions are made on more than the numbers, your professional work experience, recommendations, essays and interview will also play a critical role in the decision. Thus identifying schools where you are in a competitive range in terms of GPA/GMAT is the quickest way to identify potential options, but being high on those two measures does not guarantee admission.

Good luck,
Lisa
