Hi,
I am a fresher. I wish to apply for MiM program in London Business School, HEC Paris or IE.
I wish to know about my chances for getting into these colleges.

GMAT score - 720.
Academic profile-

I dont know how to convert the percentage to GPA, but I am pretty sure it would turn out to be around 2.7 - 2.9, which is very low.

Co-curriculum profile -

-National IT Aptitude Test-- 97%ile
-AMCAT, which is an employability test, scores as follows
English - 93%ile, Quant - 99.4%ile, Logical reasoning - 99.7%ile and Computer programming - 95%ile.
-eLitmus, also an employability test, 97.96%ile
-social media promoter for a company called Fveda
-am in my college football team, won a couple of tournaments
-completed airtel delhi half marathon twice
-I have been in the organizing committee of a various events in college, such as, Athletic meets, college fests... also a member of a committee called Cryptex in college, we were responsible in organizing various technical workshops,seminars and competitions in college


Can you please give me your opinions whether i stand any chance in LBS, HEC and IE?
What I can do to improve my profile in an year, as I am planning to apply next year for the batch that starts in 2014?
Also, suggest me some top colleges where I can apply with my profile.
Should I retake the GMAT to improve my chances?

Even with a 720, with an average grade from an average college, and as an Indian Tech graduate you are going to have quite a tough time. These schools will be a stretch for you. The "problem" with MiM programs is that since they don't have that much info about you to base their opinion, the GPA becomes VERY important. Very good internships and perhaps some entrepreneurial work during studies would also be very helpful, if you have anything like that.

You might actually have an easier time applying if you applied to places with a few years of solid experience under your belt.

Hi again,
I am confused about the percentage to gpa conversion. I have tried looking up over the internet about the conversion, but I didn't get any proper technique. Some sources say that I don't need to convert it, schools do that for me. But, I wish to know what it turns out to be on the GPA scale.

My UG score is 64%. My class toppers score range from 70-75%. A senior told me that my gpa would easily be closer to 3.5, as 60+ is distinction.
Anyway, can you give me a rough range where my score may lie on the GPA scale? And tell me, is it good, bad or ugly?

Thanks :)
