7.6/10 CGPA + 715–735 GMAT - realistic chances for HEC, ESCP, IE, ESADE, Imperial, UCL & NUS?
Hi everyone! I'm applying for 2027 Master’s programs and would really appreciate an honest profile evaluation.
Profile:
Bachelor’s in Business Management : 7.6/10 CGPA
12th: 83%
10th: 80%
Indian applicant
Targeting 715–735+ GMAT
No full-time work experience ( 2 internships)
Interested in Strategic Management / Strategic Entrepreneurship / Business & Entrepreneurship
Target universities:
HEC Paris
ESCP
IE
ESADE
Imperial
UCL
NUS
My main concern is whether my 7.6 CGPA will significantly hurt my chances, even with a strong GMAT score.
Would love to hear from anyone with a similar CGPA/profile who applied to these schools recently (2025–26), especially if you got an admit/rejection.
Which schools would you consider realistic / reach / extremely unlikely for my profile?
Thanks!
