Hello Ayushii23,
Pretty impressive academic and work profile though the obvious red flag in your profile seemingly appears to be EC and Volunteering experience. I am assuming that your association in most of these CSR events organized by KPMG has been limited. For clarity, how many hours per week were you engaged in CSR initiative(s) at KPMG? What are these initiative(s) around? However, most times, applicants do not realize the extent of their extra-curricular initiatives, thinking most of it as mundane. You may want to think about this or discuss this further as part of your admissions strategy.
You also haven’t talked about motivations for your post-MBA goals. Moving from Assurance and M&A Advisory to Brand Strategy Consulting sounds unrelated. A better strategy would be to talk about Consulting opportunities in areas aligned with your current expertise.
For your specific question on Tuck, the school values a collaborative spirit and you will have to demonstrate that in your answers. A lot will depend on your GMAT score too. Hope this helps.

Hello wishalsp333,
From what you have mentioned here, you have a lot of competition from your demography. I am also missing few other details, viz., your company name, any Volunteering initiatives you are involved in. Your EC also look outdated and you would need more current ones.
You will need to think more around your post-MBA goals. Having a divided attention between MC and GM is not what any AdCom would like to see in an application.
You can look at few other schools (Kelley, Johnson, Austin) to increase your chances of securing an admit. Hope this helps.
