Profile : M / 32 / India
I am a project manager in one of the fastest growing IT service companies of India. Right now I manage multiple projects - starting from project initiation to resource scheduling, cost-budgeting, people management - and also involve in pre-sales activities.
Past Exp:
* Engineering Grad,
* 3.1 GPA score,
* Total experience of 9 years - includes program management, IT consulting
* International experience of 5.5 years - largest telecom service provider in US
GMAT:
To appear. Considering I am from the overrepresented pool of applicants what could be a safe score to apply for the schools I have listed below. I looked at the avg gmat score of the class profiles of the schools. Do you think score 720+ will be a safe call?
Plan:
I realize that I'm getting streamlined to a specific direction in my career - that is IT Consulting. It feels like stagnation at career. After talking to peers, higher-ups, people from other service industries I realize that I require to hone up and diversify my profile in generic consulting and strategy. Now, this could be done by attending external courses. I talked to correspondents of such courses provided by external sources tied up with my organizations. I was not too convinced on that. I realize that I can achieve it over a period of time through a learning experience – though it could be a tough one after eight years of study break, but I think MBA will be a great fit to achieve this.
My age and my overrepresented pool push me in a very competitive position but I certainly want to know in details about my chances in the schools listed below:
Target Schools:
US:
1. Kellog
2. Duke
3. Darden
4. Ross
5. Tuck
6. UNC Kenan-Flagler
Europe:
1. Insead
2. Said
3. IMD
4. Cranfield
