Background: Indian male/25 (non-US citizen)

Work Experience: 2.5 years at a top management consulting firm (McKinsey/BCG/Bain) in a US office. Have been staffed on an international study (South America) too. Recently got promoted to a post-MBA position. While in school, I interned at some top firms too (does this count for anything?).

College: 3.51 from a top public (UVA/Michigan/UCLA/Berkeley) in Electrical Engineering and Business (Honors). Graduated in 2010.

GMAT: 770 (Q51, V42)

Extracurriculars: Varsity college sports team, president of a few clubs, published a journal research paper, currently involved with a local sports club team, run marathons for charity, and have been heavily involved in a non-profit for the last 3-4 years. If it means anything, I have lived in 4 different countries.

Certifications: None

Target schools: HBS, Wharton, Stanford, Columbia, Chicago, Tuck, Sloan. Please suggest others that would fit my background, and would have exit ops for PE.

Applying in: R1 2013-14

Post-MBA goal: Ideally, move to a PE megafund (or MM). Otherwise, return to my firm.

Hey Sushistop.. LOVE your profile dude!
I am totally impressed, with your experience and your GMAT (pat yourself on the back there dude!). With that, plus the internships (yes they count), plus the international work (yes, it helps

) you are truly in awesome shape to apply to Top program,s and I wouldn't settle for anything out of the Top 10 in your case.

All the schools that should be on the list are on the list. You could add Berkley if it appeals to you, and NYU if you feel like adding a safe school because anyhow it would fit with your goals, but really you are in great shape here!

(I love writing this!)
