Hi there,

I am a final year B.E. student from Delhi, India doing my Engineering in Polymer Science and Chemical Technology from Delhi College of Engineering (one of the top 10 engineering colleges in India).

I recently gave the GMAT on April 24, 2012 and got a total score of 740 (97th percentile) with 50 in QA (92nd percentile) and 40 in VA (89th percentile).

More details about my goals and a few more things which are not in my Resume are:

My SHORT TERM GOALis that I wish to enter the ALTERNATE ENERGY field by working for a 'giant' in this field as soon as I complete my degree.
My LONG TERM GOAL is that I wish to apply my knowledge of Engineering and that of Management I wish to acquire in the coming years to venture into the field of RENEWABLE ENERGY, especially that related to Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs), having done a huge project on the same at college too (details are in my resume). I have tried to learn more about this field by starting the GoGreen@DTU society, being involved in the OPV project and doing my latest internship in a company manufacturing Solar Cells!!!
I wish to attain General Managerial knowledge along with Entrepreneurial knowledge so that I can possibly start my own company related to the OPVs mentioned above.
I have tried to build as many managerial, leadership, team-working and people skills as possible at college to help enhance my personality and my skill set (as evident in my Resume).
I already have 2 job offers, 1 as an Analyst at Grail Research (a company dealing in Data Analytics & Consulting) and 1 in Corporate and Professional Services at Evalueserve (a major company in the Knowledge Process Outsourcing field), and I wish to join Grail Research, if I have to, starting this July.
I am more interested towards Masters In Management, and preferably would like to join the course around August 2013, that is after a work experience of 1 year.
I have recently started learning French and wish to give the DELF - A1 exam in a few months.
I already have a very basic knowledge of German too, having studied it for 5 years at school, but at a very basic level.

The biggest issue bugging me at this point of time is the absence of GPA system in my college (we are just given a percentage at the end of each of our 8 semesters), so please give me a workaround for this problem.

If I go for an MBA, my preference would be ISB-India, Duke, Chicago Booth; basically any college in the top 25 list from Financial Times (https://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolra ... kings-2012) would do.
Also, I have mentioned above, have absolutely no problem with MIM courses, especially the ones in top B-schools in Europe, such as HEC, ESCP, Insead, LBS, LSE, etc. On the other hand, I am really starting to like the idea of going to HEC or ESCP or Insead for an MIM!!!

Please evaluate my profile and guide me as to what course of action I should take: Should I wait for 2-3 years work experience and then apply for MBA OR start applying this year itself for MIM courses?

And, looking at all this, my BIG question is:
DO YOU THINK I HAVE A GOOD CHANCE AT SECURING AN ADMISSION AT HEC, PARIS or ESCP, PARIS or LBS, UK FOR MiM IF I APPLY FOR THE 2013 FALL PROGRAM ?

Thanks in advance for all your help...
:-)
