Hey Jay,
So overall you have a very good profile from what I can see here. Great job, great experience, great GMAT and TOEFL. The only real weakness is that your school is not IIT/NIT. But I think we can forgive that
Now since you are pretty much focusing on Top10 schools in the US, I would just say that it is to your advantage to apply to more rather than less and sooner rather than later. Because even if your profile is very good, things can get REAL competitive at Top 10 schools esp. for Indian candidates.
Which is ALSO why it is soooooo important for you to work on your story to make it awesome. Meaning your goals, your uniqueness, your passion, etc.
so basically, right now: it is time to get MOVING on those essays
Good luck,
and if you need any assistance or advice, just drop a line: https://bit.ly/mbafcGC
