Hello,
Yesterday, I gave my GMAT for the second time and scored 720(51 Q, 36 V )
. The first time I got meager 620 (50 Q, 24 V) 
. I have 2 years work experience in a IT company( working on SAP Payroll Configuration) in India as on June, 2014. I had completed my B.Tech in 2012 from India from a good college and had scored 83% . With this background I am totally confused on What schools to apply in US? Do i have a chance of getting into ISB? Please Assist
Thanks to the GMAT club which have been supportive through out my Prep

Hey Congrats on your score.
you have a good/decent GMAT score. But you fall short in your WE, you need min 4 years of experience to get into ISB. Though they say 2 years(some people have got through- but not everyone) in enough.
Also your WE means that you are totally on the technical side. For a B-school, you should be proving yourself on management side rather than technical side.
i agree, this what the profile most of our Indians students will have. But try to get some management experience in your current employer. Participate more in extra curricular, charity, Non-profit organization etc.
These are not primary. Mainly "What you have done in 4 or 5 years of professional career". Mostly a team managing/ leading activities speak alot when you are completely from technical side.
Also, there is no much information provided by you. GPA?, Extra Curricular? etc etc.
I would suggest you to continue you work another 2 years (start your apps next year as you will be matriculating in 2016- you will have 4 years of exp), and gain some management experience from your current employer or may be a job change if you want.
That being said, it also depends on the schools to select/ding you even though you will have 4 or 5 years of exp.
But, to know more and if you are ready spill in some cash. You can very well have a try applying this year. But as i said doesn't guarantee you an admission in top program.
Please check this forum for B-school discussion. Check out the average WE etc of your target schools.
Sorry, if i was demotivating, but thats the sad truth
. Many realized after completely research about their target schools. 
.The best part is you have successfully done with your GMAT. 1st step is done. Wait and take the another one with a bang
All the best.
