Thank you for your help.
Hey dude
Good to hear from you!
Sooo your profile is pretty good, and your main obstacle is that you are coming from the toughest of the toughest of applicant pools.
Now that means two things:
1. You gotta have as high a GMAT as humanly possible.
2. You gotta make yourself unique and interesting.
Without these two things, then application gets much harder. So my first thought is that you should really consider retaking the GMAT. right now your proposed school list is gonna be way too ambitious (figure that as an Indian Tech Male, the expectation is not only that you be unique, but that your GMAT be 30-40 points ABOVE the average). Let me share with you an article written by one of our consultants which deal exactly with the issue of Indians having to retake their GMAT:

Best,
Jon
