Thank you for your response.
My undergrad did not have any rankings. However, due to my average and because I once failed a paper, I was awarded a "First Class" on graduation.
I would like to continue in India. If that is difficult, I am willing to travel extensively with India as my base.
I want to go into tech/ strategy consulting.

Hi - thanks for providing your profile! Though you are applying from a very competitive demographic, your high GMAT score, strong work experience, and extracurricular involvement will help strengthen your candidacy. Regarding your undergrad performance - did you have a class ranking, or could you share whether you graduated with a distinction (High Honors, etc.)?
Also, what are your career goals, and what is your desired geography after graduation? This info will help me assess whether these schools seem to be a good fit for you.

I would appreciate a review of my profile as mentioned below. I haven’t started applying yet but I am hoping that my aims are not set too high.
Finances are not a crippling factor, but I would need some level of scholarships to manage.
