Hi Jon,

I would like to share my profile and discuss school options with you.

GMAT History:-
GMAT 1: 600 (Q:49,V:22)
GMAT 2: 620 (Q:48,V:27)
GMAT 3: 580 (Q:50,V:18)
After giving 3 attempts, I could not think of re-taking GMAT anymore :(


Work Experience:-44 months by the time I join.
Working in Infosys Ltd.
Promotion: Recruited as Systems Engineer Trainee. Promoted to Systems Engineer and now working as a Senior Systems Engineer.
Working in Banking & Capital Markets Division for client Bank of America.

Academics:- Bachelor in Engineering in Electronics & Telecomm.
GPA: 3.6
2nd topper in final year and awarded gold medal
Studied French for 8 years during school.

Extra Curricular Activity:-
Active member of my college IEEE student branch. Served as the Secretary of my college IEEE branch.
Organized various events in my college such as paper presentation.
Awarded Lt. Governor award for my work in Scouts & Guides in 2001.


I feel GMAT score will be an overall low point in my application :(

One key point: I won't be looking for a job post-MBA in US, as I have to return back to my country due to family constraints.

Can you please suggest some schools.

Waiting for your reply..

Thanks in Advance..Really appreciate your time and effort.

Well Akshat,
The important questions you need to ask yourself is: What do I want to get out of the MBA? (and maybe secondly: How will I pay the loans back!). I can tell you where you CAN get in, but I don't yet know what you want to get of the program. If you are planning to return to India, anyhow, it might make sense for you to aim for Indian or Asian programs which might end up being shorter cheaper and giving you more connections in your region.
