1. Background
- Indian Male Engineer
- Final year student pursuing Dual Degree (Bachelors and Masters) in Computer Science & Engineering with a Micro Specialization in AI from one of the top engineering schools (old IIT) in India
2. GMAT: 720 (V39, Q49), IR:8
3. Academic Achievements:
- GPA: 3.8/4.0
- Coursework: CSE & AI (Major Focus) + Finance & Marketing
- Secured Institute Rank 12th among 1465 students in first year (Top 1%)
- Two top-tier publications in the field of AI and NLP
- Received few scholarships and won various case study competitions
- Awarded Institute award for excellent performance in English & Communication course
4. Work Experience (Internships):
- Philips: Developed AI powered software that is currently being used
- Adobe: Publication and Patent
- IBM: Paper under review
- Amazon: Developed algos that led to ~$7.5Mn annual revenue increase (Major highlight/ personal accomplishment for me tbh)
- Will be joining Amazon as an Applied Scientist in July
5. Leadership and Extracurricular Activities:
- Head at Institute's Business Club and speaker at knowledge sessions on AI and ML
- Organized competitions with 3K+ participants from 100+ cities
- Active member of NGO organizations such as Rotaract International Club and Indian Red Cross Society
My GMAT score is quite poor and falls towards the lower end of the spectrum. I had considered retaking the GMAT, but the deadlines are on the 11th, 26th, and 27th of April, so it does not seem possible now.
I am seeking guidance on applying to deferred MBA programs at S/H/W. Given the competitiveness of these programs, I am uncertain whether it is worth applying.

It can be tough but not impossible. The average score of your listed Schools is 730+. Your GMAT is decent but it can be tough when compared to the rest of the applicant pool. But it’s just not the numbers game that can convert you to admit. If I were you I would not risk retaking GMAT again with the current score being 720. Your years of experience in Amazon and Philips look good considering your career achievements. As your current profile looks good apply for most schools listed there, but be sure on selecting the right program to help you in achieving your post-MBA goal.
