Hi Sajjad1994
So, your 660 is a bit low, but the rest sounds GREAT I love your international experience, both in Dubai and today while working (although from India) with a Swedish company
Your profile sounds strong and your career goals sound super reasonable.
Overall your chances should be good with a great app

What are my chances for the top 5 MiM programs
Hi,
So, NIT surat, I will assume you are Indian, you didn’t mention your gender, so I will assume you are a male (50%-50% chance here
)
If the above is true, you do come from an overrepresented background. In addition, it seems you are a bit on the high end of work experience for MIMs (which typically look for candidates with up to two years of experience) and underqualified for an MBA (average work experience is 4-6 years).
I would say your chances are low-competitive (Nice extracurricular activities, nice job, but mediocre GMAT and GPA... ) obviously, this is just my gut feeling! and perhaps with some stellar applications you can wow the committees!
you guessed right. I am a male indian , missed that out my bad. How much should I aim to get in my next GMAT attempt to offset my undergrad GPA.
the higher the better as I mentioned its not just the GPA...
