Brief: Indian, Male, 31 years, Engineer, and an MBA from top 15 Indian B school
Work experience: Corporate Banking (6 years); IT (1 year, pre Indian MBA)
Current Designation: Associate Director (have been working for a startup bank since 2 years before it started operations)
GMAT: 720 (Q50, V37, IR8, AWA awaited)
Bschools of interest: Kellogg, Cornell, INSEAD, Cambridge university (all one year programs)
Additional info:
1. Have won several highly visible national corporate competitions
2. Already a certified CFA and an FRM
3. I teach finance subjects to undergraduate students on weekends as a hobby
4. Have written business plans for several start-ups and got funding for one of them
5. Have grown from Software Engr -> Associate -> Manager -> Senior Manager -> Chief Manager -> Associate Director in 7 years of my career
6. My family runs a school for underprivileged children - i will meaningfully contribute starting this year.
Concerns:
1. Is my GMAT score ok? I can maybe add another 20-30 points max, if my mock scores are any representative. Are the Bschools I mentioned within reach?
2. While I know I will have to detail my essays really well to explain the reason for 2nd MBA, I think I will be able to manage that. Any inputs here are welcome.
3. Any particular area I need to work upon?

I would try and bump up your GMAT as Kellogg's avg score is above that now, also coming from your demographic these points will matter. How is your GPA?
