A short summary of my profile:
Indian/IT/Female/27
GMAT - 660 [not sure whether to take a retest]
10th - 87%
12th - 88%
BE - 83%
Extra -curriculum activities - good. [Won multiple accolades in debate, extempore, anchoring, drama ]
International Experience - 1 year (Canada + Israel, multiple recognitions )
Career graph:
5 yrs work exp in Amdocs, a leading software provider in telecom domain. I joined the organisation as a trainee, but with four promotions in span of 5 years, quickly rose to senior consultant, working closely with sales team on branding of new product.
1 yrs work exp in Oracle Product India Ltd. - got chance to work in cutting edge technology and futuristic products.
MY expectation from MBA is either to stay in IT domain or move to consulting.
Colleges shortlisted:
1. HEC Paris
2. SDA Bocconi
3. Rotterdam B School
4. ISB
5. INSEAD (confused as GMAT score is low)
Please suggest whether I stand a fair chance in any of the above colleges. MY preference is of 1 yr MBA.

Hey hey,
Are you applying with userb? Because you have very similar profiles and goals... will you be applying together as a couple?
Anyhow, the evaluation is similar... basically your work experience looks fine, but I feel like I have no idea WHO you are - I dont see hobbies, interests, extra currics, volunteer work, community service - and you need these things to give your profile a bit of SOUL!
Otherwise, likewise, I think you should consider retaking, esp. given the time. And here's a link to a post about that: https://bit.ly/B613Mgc
And if you have any other questions, dont hesitate.
Best,
Jon

Hey Jon,
Are you omnipotent
?
You guessed it right. We are a couple and we have lot of things common in our profile especially on the extra curriculum, work-exp and volunteer-ship front. So, I suppose same advise is applicable to both of us. We will try to retake gmat and try to improve on other front as well.
One question - is it possible to apply as a couple? Do b-schools consider such kind of common application?
Also, can you suggest few other schools that matches with our profile so that we can align ourselves with their deadline?
Thanks,
