Hi Daivat,
You have strong experience and extracurricular that will enable you to secure admissions. It might be important for you to introspect why you didn't get in last time and how you can improve your interview skills. I am not sure of your total years of experience, but you would definitely need clarity on why you need an MBA now and what after that. You also should be able to justify it well in the interview.
PM for further queries.
Regards,
Tridisha
