Charu11111, a few thoughts on your profile evaluation:
Hope this helps some. Do reach out directly on the email in the signature below for further queries.
- The academic performance is solid and the VIT pedigree is a decent one. In that context, your GMAT score is a bit on the modest side. One can usually add 20-30 points to a given school's average to get a sense of the Indian GMAT average. Do consider a retake to further bolster your prospects and aim for top league programs.
- Your work sounds promising given the award you've got. However, this will be the single most difficult aspect to stand out on given the large pool of IT applicants you'll fall into. The trajectory too looks to be on the average side (?) and not faster per se. Think about how you'll differentiate, show impact and connect the dots looking forward.
- The ECs arc is good and you can also use the Hackathons in some shape and form. Bschools value extracurriculars. Make sure to leverage this well.
- For reasons mentioned here, we don't speculate on school selection or chances. Predicting scholarship chances is tougher still. In general though, lower you target, better are the prospects for it.
