Hi, I am yet to take GMAT, but I want a fair idea of my safe and stretch schools based on my profile.
Graduate degree: Electronics and Communication CGPA: 7.2/10
Country: India, Age: 29
Work Experience: 1 year (Developer) in Sapient. Quit my job and started Orchard Farming (Family owned land but was taking a heavy loss). Taking intensive subsistence farming to profitable commercial farming by completely overhauling the way things were being done. Introduced Solar panels (since there was no electricity connections and a huge drain on revenue due to use of diesel generators), drip irrigation etc. Moved from Conventional crops to high value commercial crops like Oranges. 3 years later, started my own company (running it for 3 years now) selling farm products in the city, which now includes 21 packed items in supermarkets.
Extra Curricular: Worked with NGO (mostly health related) in rural sector especially working in AIDS prevention and Maternal Health. Started volunteering at local elections to consulting and campaigning.

Hello abuttwithaview
Thanks for getting in touch. Very interesting background/history and very interesting extracurriculars. To be fair, it's hard to give specific feedback on your profile without a GMAT score so what you might want to do is take a practice test and see approximately where you are scoring. Then we'll be able to give you more tailored feedback.
On the surface, your work history is very interesting but also quite niche. It would be good to know more about your current business and how significant it is and what you would do with the MBA and how it would help you.
I hope that helps!
