Request for Profile Evaluation

by ShrutiSreekanth » Sat Mar 05, 2016 6:57 am
Hello

I am 27-year-old Female with 69 months of experience. This includes 18 months as Industrial Engineer in USA and remaining in a manufacturing startup in India. I have a GMAt score of 680 (Quant=48, Verbal=34 and AWA=5).

B. Tech Civil Engineering from VNIT --> 7.8 GPA
12th CBSE --> 90.4%
10th CBSE --> 93.4%

I want to apply to NUS-MBA this year. Do I need to retake GMAT to get into this school? What other schools would be safe for me?

Thank you
Shruti

Hi Shruti,

Thank you for posting your profile.

Your GMAT score would be competitive for NUS, you will need to work on your essays and application package to communicate a strong work experience, while highlighting your personal qualities, and how an MBA from your target program would help you achieve your goals.

WIsh you all the best!

Hi Shruti,

You have decent GMAT and diverse work experience, it is good that you have international exposure as well. You have fair chances for NUS if you come up with strong essays and application. You need to give more time for application rather than focusing on GMAT retake. Other safe schools for you could be Singapore Management University, CUHK. Are you only focusing Asia pacific region?
