Congrats Kunal, :)
one of the most awaited post (/thread) of yours ;)

I am happy for you.

Hey Kunal, I know ur a senior at pagalguy, but cud u post ur detailed profile fr us please

Hey Kunal,

Congratulations!! You certainly deserve this admit! Now that you have Iday and Keya as your seniors what else do you need

I tried calling you but apparently your number has changed. PM me with your new number and lets catch up.

Arun

Congrats Kunal. Have a great time at the GSB.

Hello All

Many thanks for your wishes. It has been a remarkable journey for me tracing these 2 schools (Ross and GSB) for the admits that it is now very surreal, to say the least.

For Karan and other newbies (as we call you all on PG), my profile is:
770 in GMAT/4 Yrs W.E. by matriculation/ Energy Industry/ Supply Chain expereince/ Civil Engineer from a top 10 institute in India. My most significant extracurricular activity after college is well, PG :)

Hope this shall suffice.

and Arun: My number is the same. will send you a PM of it asap.

Cheers

Hey Many Congrats Kunal!! Great going :)

I got WLed at Ross. Would be calling sometime for Waitlist conversion advice..

Congrats Kunal! Great news 😃

Hello Chicago admit,
I thank you for having started this thread to discuss or clarify lingering doubts about Chicago GSB. kindly look into my profile and fwd ur candid opinion regarding my chances of making it to the school.

Acads: Scored 87% in Class X( 1991) and XII (1993), B Tech ( 8.4/9.0) , Gmat 710/5
Work Ex: 11 yrs in the Indian Army with ex ranging from fighting insurgents in the kashmir valley , commanding a company of 150 men to managing administration and logistics of an Armd Brigade.
Extra Curricular: Reprented Army in Squash and have played many games at the unit and brigade level. Was involved in a major environmental initiative undertaken in my previous unit.

Certain queries that i solicit further clarifications;
What are strengths of the program and how is it different from other b schools in us?
Do you feel it is wise to pursue a 2 year mba program at 32 yrs of age or try for a 1 yr pgme from INSEAD or IMD?
How much emphasis is laid to the diversity factor and if yes would it add value to my profile?
