Gautum,
If you are going to be a serious applicant for Fall 2011, you are going to need to do some real thinking about two things that are currently missing:
1. What you want to do post-MBA. That will dictate your list of schools (your current list is massive, obviously, and impossible to evaluate without knowing what you want to do)
2. Why now. You are a young applicant with light work experience. You are going to need an incredibly good reason to go to b-school now if you want to pursue elite programs. Right now you should be building your leadership skills, seeking work experience outside of India, and aiming for an MBA in about 2-3 years. If that doesn't describe you, why? What is your case for going early other than "I am in a rush" or "I am impatient." Those are not good reasons.
Your academic profile is strong but you either need to build your professional profile or your need to start cultivating a convincing case why an accelerated path is the right one for you.
Hope that helps.
Respectfully,
Paul Lanzillotti
