Hi

I'm a student from India looking to apply for a Master's program in Management.
I would really appreciate a profile evaluation.

-GMAT Score - 610

-Have an undergraduate degree in Commerce from one of the top colleges in India with an average of 72 out of 100 (Sorry, I do not know how to convert this into a GPA)

-Currently pursuing a diploma in marketing management.

-Was actively involved in rowing for almost 5 years.

-Interning at a leading hospital chain in India.

Is my profile good enough to apply and possibly gain admission into management schools in Europe?
I'm not really looking at Ivy League schools...

Thanks a lot

Kushal

Dear Kushal,

Whether or not you are competitive depends on the programs you are considering in Europe. If you are looking at programs that do not require professional work experience and with GMAT averages at or below 630, then I think you have a shot with a strong application package. Relative to other applicants from India, your GMAT score might be low, so I encourage you to do some research on the programs you are targeting to get a sense of the applicant pools for these schools.

Good luck,
Lisa

"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."
