You are competitive at MIT Sloan and CMU Tepper. I am concerned that lack of work experience make the program stretch programs. You may also want to consider UCLA Anderson. Or you may want to wait a year pursue the MBA.
Best,
Linda

Many thanks Linda for your reply. I am planning to apply next year since I intend to spend some more time in my current profile of family business ( Total 4 yrs of work experience at the time of admission ). Also as suggested , I will include UCLA Anderson in my final shortlist of schools.
