Hi There,

I am planning to apply for my MBA in 2015. I have a GMAT score of 730, and have done my B. Tech from BITS, Pilani with a GPA of 8.74(on scale of 10). I am working with Oracle Financial Services and will have around 2.5 year experience by the time I join. I am very much interested in Finance, and thus want to pursue MBA. I am involved with an NGO during my free time and enjoy reading and dancing.
Requesting for some suggestions on fitting schools and somethings I can do now to improve my candidature.

You have a good profile but you may fall short of work experience in case of well known B schools for finance like Wharton, Kellogg, LBS, Booth.

Thanks Mamit, Which schools you think might be okay with my work experience being on lower end?

Are you only looking at US schools? In general you might have more luck in targeting business schools where your GMAT score is higher than the average, to make up for your lower work experience. Something like Tulane - Freeman, that school is strong in finance, and its average GMAT score has hovered around 650 over the past few years. Or Fordham maybe.

But if you waited a year or two you'd be more competitive at the schools that Mamit mentioned, which would obviously give you more long-term value.
