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?

Hello there good sir!
So first of all, I think your GMAT score is excellent, although yes, if you think you can get 20-30 points higher you should retake, as every little bit helps, and especially for Indian candidates who test so well in general, and so the extra points will help you stand out.
But truly, what will be critical in your case is your STORY: What are your goals? Why second MBA? What at this point?
If you can make a great story, you can go a long way!
