Hi satyamas
I am Priyanka, Client Manager at ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, Your GRE score is slightly below the average for Cornell and Ross. Your GPA looks a bit low too. The major highlight of your application should be your work experience. With 6 years of experience, I can see a significant impact in your role as Senior Design and Development Engineer at a global leader in medical technology. Leading international teams, driving a $55M revenue increase, and creating a mentorship program that improved retention all highlight your strategic thinking and leadership. Your quick promotion is also a plus and should be highlighted to the adcoms.

Outside of work, your passions—like leading a band as a self-taught guitarist or organizing motorcycle trips, or volunteering to help rural businesses and mental health initiatives—are very impressive. Your volunteer work further shows a strong commitment to giving back to the society.

I’d love to learn more about your journey. FEEL FREE TO CONNECT TO FOR A DETAILED DISCUSSION.

Without a strong defense (scores), nothing will help an Indian male engineer. The only help possible would have been to select schools where your scores give you an advantage.
