Abhishek,
You have chosen your schools well and have a very impressive profile. You may also want to consider MIT Sloan, Haas, and Stanford.

Linda,
Thanks for your suggestions. Stanford is my favorite college, but I feel its too selective. Do you feel that I have a decent chance at Stanford? (As I am a bit old: 29 years of age, and I think that Harvard/Stanford does emphasize on age)
Regards,
Abhishek
