Hi Ananya, I'm not an expert but I happened to come across your post.
My two cents: could you please post your work-related, engineering-related, and extra-curricular achievements? That'll help the experts judge your profile better. I've been applying to B-Schools for a while now, and schools mostly assess the overall strength of a profile, they do not base a judgement on just 1 pitfall. Since you have 9 years of experience and your engineering GPA is high, 610 might not be the worst score if your work role (managerial experience), workstream, work achievements, extra-curricular achievements, work experience outside of your main job (work with startups, starting a company, working on consulting, etc) paint a strong picture.
Another point would be to have a broader list of schools to apply to based on their admission deadlines. Having 4-5 B-Schools as a contingency might not seem necessary, but can be helpful. SPJIMR is definitely worth a shot. The PGPM program helped my old boss switch from IT to Sales Operations last year, with better pay and a better company.
Thanks,
Saurav

Hi AnanyaPS ,
Thanks for sharing your profile. Based upon the information that you have shared, it is recommended that you aim for one year programs of these colleges - IIMK, IIMI, IIMU, Great Lakes, SPJIMER, MDI, XLRI. These colleges will be within your striking distance if you prepare well for your applications and interview.
In some of the colleges, where last round (eg SPJIMER) are about to close, you can target with this GMAT itself. For rest of the colleges you can either - 1. go with the same score if you think you are saturated by the GMAT preparation 2. Try to improve by 20-30 points and target other colleges in round 2 this year. Given your work experience of 9 years, waiting for one more year will not be advisable.
You have good academics and good work experience and it seems to be a great profile. It will be great if you can share more details so that better evaluation can be done. Hope it helped. You can contact us for more detailed discussion.
Best Wishes!
