Hi Mr. Indian Finance Ministry! What’s there not to love here? You are clearly very bright (770 GMAT; respectable GPA in a highly rigorous field), a cross-functional leader with great achievements/impact (strong YOY group, team management, likely many promotions among the functions you’ve touched) and very committed to helping others through your extracurricular work.

Hi Mr. Indian Finance Ministry! What’s there not to love here? You are clearly very bright (770 GMAT; respectable GPA in a highly rigorous field), a cross-functional leader with great achievements/impact (strong YOY group, team management, likely many promotions among the functions you’ve touched) and very committed to helping others through your extracurricular work. Your post-MBA goals are a common path, so you’ll want to ensure that your candidacy stands out in other areas to differentiate yourself from this highly competitive pool. Make sure that your source of motivation for your goals is crystal clear (may require some deep introspection to identify that point in your life that you said “YES strategy consulting is for me!”). You’ll also want to clearly articulate your short term AND long term goal in your admissions process (often, strategy consultant is ones’ short term goal in order to gain valuable experience that can propel them toward their long term goal, but not for everyone). You have a killer profile from what I can see; with a little introspection/strategizing and compelling storytelling, I’d place my bets on seeing you in Evanston!
