Below is my profile. I like to understand where I stand with respect to admission into one or two of the top 15 B-schools in US.
1) Geography - India
2) Under Grad - B.tech (Electronics) - 7.23/ 10
3) 12th Grade - 91%
4) 10th Grade - 78%
5) Work Exp - 4 years with one of India' largest IT companies (includes 1 year at Client location - Sydney). Over 2 years exp in managing team of 6.
6) Quit job as IT was not a field of my interest and I did not wish to continue any further.
7) Joined a Manufacturing company as Operations Analyst (SCM) for lesser pay than in IT. [Filed of my interest. Have long term plans in manufacturing]
8) Will complete 18 months in Operations at the time of admission (Aug 2012).
9) Career Plan - Post MBA - Work in any of the top consulting/manufacturing companies for an year or two.
- 2 years post MBA - To start my own manufacturing company in India
10) GMAT - 650. (Q 49 and V 30). Plan to give again and targeting 700 or over.
11) Displayed leadership qualities on various instances since childhood. Confident that I can well detail these in the essays.
My preferences for school
1) Well balanced in all teaching methodologies
2) Should have good history of collaboration among students (Closely Knit community among students)
3) Good in General Mgmt,Operations and Entrepreneurship.
I have 2 questions :
1) Which are the US and Non US - schools suggested for my profile with me having FAIR chances of admission (6 US and 4 non US - NOT necessarily in top 15)
2) Considering my reco's are good, what are my chances for the below schools
1) Tuck
2) Kellog
3) MIT
4) Cornell
5) Wharton
6) Berkely
I appreciate advice.
