This is Mervin. I have a GMAT score of 710.i'm from India and here percentage system is being followedin which I ve got 71 percentage out of 100 scale. I'm interested in Information system Management and my second option would be Finance. I'm a active member of Rotaract Club of my town and have organinzed few events. Also I ve arranged many industrial visits to few places and organized cultural functions in my college during my undergrad studies.

I'm currently working for one of the best software companies in India as a software developer for two years.
i'm also maintaining a blog site for biotech people on my own as I'm lured by this technology and it's going quite good.I'm a certified Java programmer and love to badminton and have few awards during school days and also have represented few matches in college competition.

Could you please suggest me some good colleges and its rankings where probabilty of getting a job would be high
I 've more of a technical background rather than management stuff.Also

Dear Mervin,

I encourage you to visit our sticky on school selection for tips on how to identify potential schools. How competitive you are will vary by school, but all will expect you to present a compelling case for your admission over other applicants with a similar profile. Since a large percentage of the applicant pool will appear similar to you, then it is imperative you distinguish yourself from the competition and present the strongest application possible.

As for job prospects, that depends more on you than on what school you attend. You have to be willing to put in the time and effort to seek out opportunities and compete for them. Schools can only help prepare you and help you in constructing your job search strategy--you are the one that meets with companies and secures employment.

Good luck,
Lisa
