Hi Lisa:
I have been visiting this form and reading your responses for a while now. I have to admit that I gathered a lot of information from your responses. I would like you to evaluate my profile, let me know what my chances are, and finally provide me with your insights.
Here is my profile:
Indian, Male, 30 (31 at matriculation), Married
Transportation/Traffic Engineer working for both public agencies and private developers
BS in Civil Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) (received merit/means scholarship for all four years)
MS in Civil Engineering specializing in Transportation/Traffic from UMass Amherst
GMAT : 710 (Q48, V40), AWA 5.0
GPA : 3.5 (BS), 3.6 (MS)
Work experience and Career Progression: 6 years with 3 promotions and related raises. Started as an entry level engineer but now working as a project manager. Expect strong recommendations from two supervisors. Managed and worked on numerous infrastructure development projects with both city governments (planning commission and public hearing) and private developers.
EC : Coached a U-15 soccer team for two seasons and made it win its division (strong leadership). Captain of a tennis team in USTA 4.5 league. Ongoing volunteership for Southern California Forestry Service helping with data collection to study the effects of wild fires and subsequent conservation. Newletter Chair for Institute of Transportation Engineers, Southern California Section
Goals: Short Term: Work as a City Manager for a big city and oversee all operations or a Principal at a large civil/environmental engineering firm. Long Term: Start my own Civil/Environmental engineering firm and lead in innovative and sustainable business, growth, and development.
Target Schools: 2 Year Full time programs at Berkeley, Stanford, and Wharton. I esp. love Berkeley and Stanford because of their "Green" oriented MBA programs that fit my passion towards sustainable growth and development with innovation and socially responsible entrepreneurship.
Thanks in advance,
Arun.
