Dear Linda,
I will provide you a point by point answer for all your queries.
<What have you been doing profesisonally?>
I have outlined my responsibility in the first post in this thread. To give you a clearer picture, however, I am also attaching my resume. Hope that will help
<Where did you go to college and what was your major and grade point average? >
Please refer to my resume for the same.
<Are you in the US? Do you prefer to do your MBA in the US or elsewhere? If the latter where?>
No. I am in India.
US is my first preference. Other schools I am targetting outside US are IMD, Insead and IESE
<Do you have any community service? If so what? >
I have been a voluntary blood donor for the last 4 years. Apart from that I have been involved with orgainizing fund raisers and collection/awarenes drives for a local charity that works for the upliftment of street children.(kindly refer my first post)
Any international experience?
As of now... nothing but I will be deputed to US for six months January next year.
I hope I have been able to answer your questions satisfactorily. Please refer to my first post and resume and kindly let me know what realistically are my chances of making it to a top 10 school in US.
Should I wait for a year or will it help to have a higher GMAT score? Please let me know if there are any minor gaps I could work on before I apply. In short please feel free to critique my profile the way you want to.
Awaiting your valuable response.
Warm Regards,
Manan
