Is it advisable to apply for MBA or master's programs in the USA with my current academic and professional background?

Yes, you can apply for both MBA and master's programs in the USA with your background - a 4-year B.Tech in IT, 48 months of work experience, and a 6-year gap since graduation.

- For master's programs, your work experience is a plus, but your undergraduate GPA (53%) is below the typical minimum (60%) for many universities. Strong GRE/GMAT and IELTS scores (aim for at least 7.0) can help offset this.
- For MBA programs, your work experience meets expectations. Highlight leadership roles and explain your 6-year gap clearly in your application.

Address the gap in your statement of purpose and tailor each application to the program's requirements. If you need help strengthening your applications, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
