Ross School - MSCM course

by yokomariners » Sat Mar 15, 2008 10:33 pm
Hi Stacey,
I want to apply for MSCM ( masters in supply chain management ) program
at Ross for Winter 09 admissions.
- 3.5, M.S(Mech Engg), IIT Madras, India
- GMAT 570 (Q44, V25)
- Have been with Tata Consultancy Services, India, in the area of engineering services consulting for 9 years. Had taken up various roles in
techno-managerial and techno-commercial evaluations.
Computer aided Engineer (CAE) & Six sigma Consultant
Worked with GE,GM, Nissan, Chrysler both in India and abroad.
Six Sigma Black Belt.
- have grown Chrysler engineering business with TCS from scratch to $7 Million.
- I am working towards setting up my own consulting firm.
Exploring various business options
Played for Universities in cricket, Full time wicketkeeper batsman
- Traveling to Japan was very astonishing to me. Thats the first time I found myself in an non-English speaking country. I like their work culture, discipline and dedication. It took me couple of weeks to adjust to food, but I do really enjoy Japanese food. Working with a translator was a new experience to me, I felt like i needed to slow down and wait till I got throught communicating.
Preaparing for GMAT a month after I got married was very challenging.

Pls advise on what you think about my chances of getting admitted to this program.
Thanks
Yoko.
thanks

Dear Yoko:

It is hard to say what your chances are as the program has just been launched and the first class is starting in January. I would expect that your professional experience is going to be a common profile for applicants to the program, so you will want to highlight your accomplishments and unique experiences. To make your applicaiton more competitive, you should probably take the GMAT again or consider taking the GRE.

Good luck!
Lisa

You'd better to retake the GMAT. A score of 570 is weak.
