Sai Pavan Bhogireddy | Indian Male Engineer Pool with lower GMAT | INSEAD and HEC Paris MBA Admit

Hi, I am Sai Pavan and I am an INSEAD and HEC Paris Full Time MBA Admit. As an Indian Male engineer from IIT Madras and Masters (KTH Sweden) and Ph.D. (Max Planck Germany), I am working as a scientist for a steel major in Europe, I was definitely a non-traditional candidate. I also struggled a bit with the GMAT, scoring high in Quant and low in Verbal that led to a lower score (700) that I believe didn't represent my potential. But I still kept faith and powered through the applications and was glad to have secured the support from Sumeet Verlekar and the Tilden (www.tilden.in) team. You can contact me on LinkedIn. You may also contact Sumeet on LinkedIn or write to him at connect[at]tilden.in. Good luck in your process.
