Hi there,
I would like to study MBA from top 10 universities in the US. Could anyone please have a look at my profile and let me know my chances of getting into top schools? I also have lot of other questions.
Academics :-
SSC/10th - 84%; Intermediate/+2 - 91%; Engineering - 76% ; I won an award from Govt of AP (India) (Prathibha award) for securing good rank in Engineering Entrance Exam;
Work experience :-
I have around 9 years of experience in IT. I worked with top Indian MNCs as a project manager for an year, project lead for around 4 years. Worked in onsite for about an year. Currently I am working for a friend's start-up to gain experience to start my own in future.
Had awards and promotions in the companies I worked.
Have got 2 technical certifications and 4 certifications in Life Insurance domain (LOMA certifications - short of one certification for ALMI designation)
Extracurricular :-
Have participated in lot of extracurricular activities during my school and college days; Have been associated with a slum improvement program with an NGO for 2 years. Have good knowledge of public policy and governance as I also prepared for Indian Civil Services for a while.
Expectations out of MBA:
Consulting then move onto Entrepreneurship. And I also plan to start my own NGO later on when I am financially ok.
My questions are:
1) As I asked above: what are my chances of getting into top 10 US schools?
2) I am planning to give GMAT by the end of this May. What is the score expected to get into these schools? Will I get enough time to prepare for my application if I give GMAT in July?
3) What would be total cost of the MBA programme and the living expenses during the 2 years?
4) Do the schools offer any scholarships? If yes, what would be the probability that I get one?
5) Is it possible to work part time in the hectic schedule? How about the study loans? Should we take loans from Indian Banks or US banks?
6) How about jobs after MBA? How long would it take to pay off the entire loan?
Please help!

Swetha,
1) I can't answer that with at least an indication of an anticipated GMAT.
2) You want to have a 700+, preferably 720.
3) That depends on the school, but most schools charge around $50 per year. You can find this information on each school's web site. Also Businessweek.com has it aggregated. FT and US News may also have it.
4) YEs, they offer them. I don't know. A lot would depend on your GMAT.
5) Very difficult. I'm not sure.
6) The depends on the size of the loan, the type of work you do after the MBA, and how much you make, as well as the lifestyle you maintain.
Best,
Linda

Thanks for the answers Linda!
I am scoring around 720-730 in the mocks. Does that give any idea as to which schools I should target based on my profile?
Thanks,
Swetha
