Hi,

I have (again) recently appeared for the GMAT and have scored 650 {Q49 (79%ile) / V33 (66%ile) /AWA 4.5 (30%ile)}.

GPA - Scored 65% in Bachelor of Engineering.

I have @8 years of work experience in an MNC as an IT Consultant, part of it in the USA/UK and Aus along with in India.

I am also involved in social service work as part of my work organization as well as external.

Kindly let me know which b-schools in the USA/Asia I could target for the next intake.

Thanks.

Hi phadtareharshal,

Thanks for writing in. Your GMAT score would put you in position to apply to U.S. schools in top-20-30 range. Since you fall into the "IT consultant" category, you will need to point to parts of your work experience that truly differentiate you -- perhaps your international experience could work here, as well as any potential leadership you have demonstrated in your career? I would also encourage you to dig more into your extracurricular activities to help differentiate yourself from similar candidates.

It's difficult for me to list specific schools without knowing more about your interests, restrictions and goals, but I think you could research bottom of the top-25 in the U.S., and equivalent Asian schools, to decide where would be a good fit for your interests.

Best of luck,

Daniel Richards
