Hi,
I come from a tech and non-profit background and would love to get answers to some questions which have been troubling me. First, my profile:
Age: 26
Nationality: Indian
Gender: Female
GMAT: 740
Education: Bachelors in engineering from a decent college in India.
Work ex: 5 years at the time of matriculation (applying for fall 2013)
Marketing manager at a well-known non-profit for children's education in India.
Currently working as the co-founder of a start-up which deals with technology in India.
EC: Active in driving environmental initiatives in my locality.
Goals: Scaling up my venture to impact organizations globally.
My questions:
1. My target schools list for this year: Kellogg, Duke Fuqua, Ross, MIT Sloan (maybe), Cornell Johnson (again maybe). I would love to get a second opinion on my school selection.
2. I applied to Yale SOM last year and got dinged. My biggest fear is ending up with a whole bag of rejections this year. From your experience with interacting with candidates from different backgrounds, I'd love to hear honest feedback about how competitive my profile actually is.
Extremely sorry for the long post - I appreciate your time and patience. Thanks in advance!
