Hey Ajinkya,

319 is not a bad score but you come from the over-represented group hence it can be a challenge as well. You mentioned that your age is 34, which is higher than the avg age of the current batch.

I see that you haven't mentioned anything during the 2012-15 time period. Was that a break or did you pursue any degree?

I did not understand this: 'Executive MBA will not help me in any way in the government sector' and later you mentioned that you want to go in Mgt consulting/Ops-Tech.

What I can say is that definitely you will have to work hard and craft your stories. It's not totally impossible. European schools can be achievable as their avg age is higher than the US B schools. I would suggest you reach out to TheRedPen - They are into this field for a long time and will guide you.

Please let me know if you need any more help.

Regards,
R

thank you for reaching out.
during 2012-15 I was teaching technical subjects and other competitive exam subjects in private (non-organized sector).
I got selected for my current position on the basis of an All India Competitive exam. roughly 11,00,000 students appear for it and I stood 1200 in it to secure this post.
Like in the private sector/corporate, an executive MBA may help you get a raise/fast track promotion; in the government sector, any higher education doesn't translate into any such benefits. In govt, the raise, promotions, etc are all time-bound and fixed. SO, I aspire to shift into corporate by doing a full time MBA.

I did reach you to RedPen over call and chat. in fact, they were the ones who suggested me to get my profile vetted and inputs taken from GRE/GMAT club forum.

i took GRE general on 29th April 2022 @ 10 am IST.

i had the 2nd, 4th, and 6th section as Verbal (V).
and 3rd and 5th as Quant (Q).

the first section of Q felt very easy. the second section of Q was easy for the first 12 questions or so, but after that it felt very tough. it tested 2-3 questions on probability and SD, mean concepts each. and had a DI on SD topic. i think I lost 2-3 marks there. Overall I scored 163 in Q

the first section of verbal was manageable. but he second and third section was felt moderately tough. Overall I scored just 156 in V

For MBA, this score of 319 seems less. i may retake the exam next month.
