Hi there,
Thanks for posting. You've got some solid work experience, and the team lead experience is a plus certainly. That said, as I've just posted to others
, there are so many Indian IT and engineering applicants to b-school.... it can be challenging to stand out from the crowd, and it's quite a competitive group with high average GMAT scores. I'm not sure if you would consider trying the GMAT again-- schools take the highest score and it's quite common to take it more than once, fyi. At present I'd probably look outside the top 20-25 or so schools for better chances, fyi. In terms of specific schools, it really depends on a lot of factors-- location, urban vs suburban or more rural setting, class size, specializations, employment statistics, etc. For more on choosing schools, check out our free download at: https://info.mbamission.com/Selecting-Yo ... ram-E-Book.
Additionally-- dig deep and brainstorm on what makes YOU unique... b-school admissions decisions are made holistically... it's not just based on grades or facts or stats, but on a holistic picture of the applicant and what they'll contribute to the program, who they are as a person. That is primarily evidenced through your ESSAYS, fyi!! (And interview if you get to that point.) Elements you need to convey in your application for a chance at a top rated program include:
-what past experiences and skills will benefit you in the classroom, and later in your career
-what key traits and experiences make you UNIQUE; basically, 'why YOU??' vs other applicants
-why you want the MBA, with clear short term and long term post-MBA goals
-why NOW
-why that specific school is right for you
If you lack any of the above components, you risk that another well or similarly-qualified applicant who includes all of those, will wind up getting accepted over you!
Good luck on the process!
