Hi,

Please help evaluate my profile. My target schools are Stanford, Harvard and Kellogg
Age: 26
Nationality - Indian
GMAT score: 680 (V36,M47)
GPA - 3.5
Education:

- B.COM, Bharathiyar University, India
- PGDM, Marketing, Insead Business school, Singapore (part time)
- Advanced project management degree, Stanford University (part time)

Work Experience:

- 6 years with one of the top internet companies in the world
- One of the fastest growing employees with 4 promotions in 6 years
- Currently managing sales teams across multiple locations in APAC
- One of the youngest ever people managers at my company
- Won the prestigious founder's award
- Consistently rated in top 5% percentile of performers

Extra curricular:

- 4 time district badminton champion

Community work

- Vice-chairman of the board for a charity trust in india which runs two non-profit schools for nearly 2000 students

International experience:

- Currently in singapore but my job requires managing people across different geographies and I have team members from 5 different nationalities reporting to me

Reccos:

- I can manage recommendations from senior executives from my company who are alumni's from stanford/Harvard

The other thing I want to mention is that my salary right now is higher than the median salaries at any of the top b-schools. Will this affect my chances considering b-schools tend to look at % increase in salaries quite a lot?

Overall, I want to know whether my profile will make up for the low gmat score. I really want to be sure whether I will get a call with this gmat score. Please let me know.

Hi galaxynexus,

You should not be worried about your current salary and how it would impact your acceptance.

Regarding your GMAT score, if you believe you can improve your score by 40+ points, I do recommend you take the exam again. Remember that your GMAT score is self-reported on your application, so admissions teams will focus on your highest score. Right now your score is a fair amount lower than the averages of the programs you are considering.

If you decide to take the GMAT again, here is a free resource: https://www.stacyblackman.com/gmat-overview

Cheers,

Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
