Post college not much, but I do take part in endurance sports (aquathlon, triathlon, 10K, registered for a 21K, a marathon and a hurdle run) and tried to form an association for the young professional but it didnt pick up really.
Volunteer Work - almost none except that I have been regularly teaching maths to my maid's two children for the last 9 years.
GRE/GMAT
GRE -331 (Q-169, V-162, AW-4).. yeah! no GMAT, is this a deal breaker...
ACADEMICS
Late bloomer. Average joey till school and then overachieved while at college.
Undergrad in commerce from Delhi University (first class degree and a college topper).. Percentage - 71.1%. The university does not calculate GPA.. but if done it would be closer to 4.

Want to apply to B-Schools in US.
CONCERNS
not a great undergrad degree/college, no great brand names when it comes to work ex.
