Hello there!
akshj03Thank you for your post!
Firstly, let me say that with your impressive background, you're on a promising path toward achieving your goal. Now, let's dive into your profile and talk about how you can make it even stronger for INSEAD.
Your Academic credentials are solid, and your professional qualifications
as a member of ACCA and CPA Bermuda add significant value to your profile since
INSEAD values diversity and excellence, and your credentials reflect both. However, you must highlight more of your leadership opportunities, such as what qualities helped you become an Assistant Manager at KPMG in such a short period. For international exposure, please mention the difference in the culture, what skills were honed or newly learned, and a bit about the overall experience rather than just mentioning the tenure. INSEAD looks for candidates with a strong professional trajectory and international exposure.
Your
desire to transition into a global consulting role and seek international opportunities is something that a lot of candidates would be interested in and would put as an answer! INSEAD's program is designed to nurture global leaders. Hence, it would be best if you highlighted how your experience can help make a difference in someone else's life rather than how it would help you professionally and why you think your work experience meets the criteria in showcasing how you can contribute uniquely to the INSEAD community.
Target GMAT Score:
INSEAD's MBA program is highly competitive; the
average score ranges from 700 to 710+. Thus, aiming for a score of 700 or above can make you a more competitive applicant. To know more about INSEAD MBA GMAT & Class Profile, student Industry & Academic Background, you can refer to this article-

Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions or need further guidance.
Best of luck on your MBA journey!
Cheers!
