Hi, and thanks for writing! You have some solid elements to your profile including solid academics, early career progression, and community involvement, but the process is extremely competitive for Indian applicants. HBS, GSB, and Wharton particularly would be tough - I always encourage those applying from heavily represented demographics to apply in Round 1. Stern already had two deadlines pass and is quasi-rolling in a sense. Tuck and Rotman are good target programs, as are INSEAD and LBS. A couple of things to think about as you finalize your applications:
1.) Make a strong case for why each program is a strong fit for you based on its culture and resources (that you've learned about via primary research)
2) Think through the motivations behind your career goals - why consulting? And, knowing how competitive the Partner track is, would you want to switch into Industry at some point in the longer-term? If so, which one(s) interest you?
Hope that helps - Happy New Year!
