Do you think I have a fair chance of making any to these schools? Do you think I should improve my GMAT score, given that my profile resembles to the ubiquitous Indian IT Male?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
You do not have a bad profile, but you need to highlight the business side of your work and the interpersonal leadership involved in your Net Impact and CSR involvement. I do think it helps for an Indian male to have a GMAT that exceeds a school's average by 20 points, so if you can retake the GMAT it cannot hurt.
