Good networking with Director and senior managers hence would get good recommendations. I am known in the company as one of the best in Public speaking and have leaded many team events. I am also a part of Toastmasters International as I work in the Executive commitee of Deloitte Hyderabad Toastamsters club leading 60 members group.

Why MBA-
I have woked on projects on Insurance Industry of US and UK and I observed that Indian Insurance Industry has a lot of scope of improvement. I want to continue my work in IT-Consulting especialy on Insurance industry, develop myself as manager and then bring back these learining to Indian Insurance Industry.

Hello,

You have several things going for you, including your undergraduate record and your work with Deloitte. Your goal of working in the Indian insurance industry will be helpful and should be clearly stated in your application essays.

Your GMAT score will be a hurdle and you will be competing in one of the largest and most difficult applicant pools. You have wisely chosen schools for which you fit the profile. With a strong set of essays and excellent recommendations you should be in good shape. There are, of course, no guarantees because all the top schools have many more talented applicants than they can accept. However, you are definitely the caliber of applicant to consider these schools. You should think about using a seasoned admissions consultant to ensure that you tell the strongest possible story in your essays.

Good luck,
Tani Wolff

Hi Tani,

Thanks for your evaluation. I am glad that you gave a positive response.
I would surely work deligently on my essays. Though I was thinking to write the essays on my own to keep it original.
But would surely consult a consultant if I feel I am not able to write the way it should be.
