Shiv,
Thanks for your detailed post. Have you considered retaking the GMAT? I recommend trying to improve that score in order to have a decent chance of getting into a good school. In addition, with 12 years of experience the full-time programs will be more challenging to get into. I recommend looking at some one year options if you are wedded to full-time.
We can certainly chat more about your options and a GMAT strategy.
Best,
Scott

Hi Shiv
With a total of 12 years of experience, you are well on the higher side of the work-experience spectrum. Your work-ex is solid, and it deserves a higher GMAT score to supplement it. You should also be looking at the Sloan Masters programs, 1-year MBA options designed for professionals with higher than average work experience. While there is a chance that you could make it with your current score, that chance is low, and a higher score (650+ as an initial target, but if 680+ could be achieved that would be outstanding) will certainly help.
