Hi All,

I recently appeared for the GMAT and scored a 750 (Q 50, V41) on my first attempt. I received an AWA of 4.5 .

I have a total of 5 years of experience working for two different IT companies. I have been in the financial domain throughout working in core banking implementations and business analytics.

Would need advice on what kind of college can I apply to in India. Also what kind of scholarship can I manage in case I apply and get selected for some US program. I cannot afford the fees for US schools on my own.




Hi Experts/Consultants,

I am preparing for CAT '14/XAT '15 and aiming for IIMs and other top institutes like SP Jain, MDI, FMS, XLRI, XIMB, only. However, in the worst case if I don't get a decent percentile to manage calls from the above institutes; I am planning to appear for GRE next year. I am currently working in family business of pharmaceutical company and have a total of 2 years of work ex. Kindly suggest the ideal time for GRE preparation, considering the fact that I am well prepared for CAT '14. Also, when should I take GRE to get admission around July-Sept?

TIA 😃


@MansieDewanConsulting@mba-help - I plan to give my GMAT on the 16th of October. Please let me know which colleges in US can I target for R1 and some good options to try for R2 in US.

I have 4 years of experience into IT sector with international exposure. I have more than 85% aggregate in both 10th and 12th standards.

In extra curriculars I have won accolades in debates, group discussions, drama competitions and singing competitions as well.

Please let me know the score I should target and if you can provide some good colleges in US to target for R1/R2; with good chances of scholarships as well.

I am also inclined to ISB and INSEAD apart from the colleges in US.
