Hi there,
I would like to hear your expert opinion about my profile. Just started preparing for GMAT 2 days back. I am aiming for only Top 10 B-schools for admission in 2012.
Here is my profile:
31 years / Male
Nationality: Indian
Exposure: Living and working in Europe from past 6 years.
GMAT
Not taken yet. Plan to take my first GMAT exam sometime in 1st/2nd week of September 2011.
Undergraduate
1. Degree: Electronics & Telecom Engineering from India
2. Percentage: 80% - I was the topper of the class of 40 odd students.
Masters
1. Degree: Master of Technology(M.Tech) from a well known university in India
2. Percentage: 85% - Gold Medalist. I was ranked no.1 in the University
Work Experience
1. 8 years of experience in various Multinational companies.
2. Living and Working as a permanent employee in Europe from past 6 years.
3. Five years of experience in Software Development/testing.
4. From past 3 years, I am working in a role which requires dealing with several partners to get the work done. Also, I am leading a project team consisting of 4 engineers and I'm doing pretty good in that(can get good reference from my boss).
Others
I am a very socially active person & erving as a board member of International community in my city & organised several social events. (Can get some recommendation for that too).
Questions
I will really appreciate if you can provide your valuable feedback on:
1. What GMAT score should I aim for ?
2. I am planning to take GMAT test somewhere in early September 2011. Do you think, I will get sufficient time to prepare. I can devote around 2 hours on weekdays and 6-8 hours on weekends. Is that enough ?
3. Prep books: I have just bought Manhattan GMAT Complete Prep Set incl. The 3 Official Guides for GMAT Review. Do you suggest to buy something else too ?
4. Do I have a chance to get into top 10 B-school with my profile?
5. Do you think I will need TOEFL or IELTS score for my MBA applications?
Thanks a lot in advance. I am really looking forward for your opinion.
Regards,
