Hi
saikiran1003,
Thank you for your post and for sharing your profile. I like that you published a research paper and have been recognized as a top performer. I see that you have also retaken the GMAT, and improved your score significantly. The challenges you will face with target schools, however, are your lower than average GPA and GMAT. Most of the schools on your list are reach schools. Goergia Tech's class profile, for example, has a median 3.6 GPA and GMAT Quant is in the 94th percentile range while verbal is in the 90th percentile range. UCLA's MS in Business Analytics class averages in the 92nd percentile overall GMAT and 3.5 GPA. A similar case is for the European schools.
That said, you have a competitive profile for HEC+Grande Ecole - Data Science and ESSEC+CentraleSupelec - Business Analytics. Be sure to spend some time developing your story and the reasons for a MAster's in Data Science and Business Analytics, respectively. While a data science degree, communicating your ambitions and goals is key in the application process. Be sure to spend some time there so you increase your chances.
