Had to repeat it since i was not eligible to take any indian mba entrances, moreover i knew the my earlier scores were not a reflector of my potentials.

Diploma in Aviation and hospitality from Edexel University 2010 (18 months duration).
Diploma in Theater 2007.

Assuming that you score on the GMAT as you believe you will, I suggest you consider MBA programs like Rochester Simon, UNC, Georgetown, UT Austin, Babson, and Zicklin.
