Hello,
I am Indian IT male software Engineer,I need help in shortlisting B-schools given my nature of profile and the high amount of applicants for similar profiles
Undergraduate degree: Electronics and Communication Engineer
Undergraduates: 7.7/10 (Amrita School Of Engineering)
High School (12th) : 95.7%
Work Experience (Infosys Limited)
Have 3.5 years of work experience in multiple projects and domains. Initially I started working in a project fr US based medical equipment manufacturing company.I was owner of 2 critical modules and had regular client interactions with the QA manager and also higher management(As the module was a critical deliverable).
Then I shifted into data migration project with a 15 member team and lead 1 module with a team of 4 members. As the deadlines were strict, we were able to deliver on time and won appreciations for the same. My next project was
for Microsoft client on CRM and BI based projects. Led a 3 member team in data analysis and data modelling for design of integrated reporting Framework.Was also part of the Test strategizing,Test planning and work allocation and project management.
Extra Curricular:
Was an Active member of Socio-Economic club in college.Organised Cultural events, to raise funds for charity. Organised fund raising camp,medical equipment for Local government schools. Active member of the technical fest organising committee and all round participation in sports, drama etc.

2.Member of Youth seva foundation. (YFS)
Volunteered in English tutoring classes to underprivileged kids. Reading stories to kids with mentally challenged children, organizing regular picnics and volunteered in medical camps for visually challenged and hearing impaired students
My preferences of a MBA degree is (Finance (my interest), Operations Management (To diversify my field of opportunities and to gain more insights on multi dimensional sectors and work cultures), Information management (As I already have corporate experience in this domain). Looking for oppurtunities in financial consulting firms
Please suggest if there are any chances for admissions into top 20 universities. Also suggest any other good univs (Preferring University of washington , kelley)

Hi swarajmach,
Thanks for your message. I really enjoyed reading your profile. I reviewed your profile similar to other candidates' profiles that I evaluated when I was on the Admissions Committee.
It is really difficult to say without knowing your GMAT score. Based on the rest of your background and keeping in mind your request to stay in the top 20, I would recommend Johnson, Ross, Tepper, Andersen, Stern, Judge, ISB, and IIM-B. You have also gained firm leadership skills through several extracurricular activities which will further support your personal achievements.
The only other challenge I see is the total years of work experience you currently have. Ideally, it would be great to wait until you have 4+ years of total work experience but if you feel you are ready to apply, then you should give it your best. At the end of the day, the quality of work experience is more important than the quantity of years. Candidates with 3 years of work experience are accepted but schools prefer 4+ years. Programs tend to be fair and understanding but you will have to ensure that you communicate your personal and professional background effectively.
Hope this helps. Please let us know if you have any questions or would like to have a free evaluation by our top-tier consultants or our top-tier admits in the schools you mentioned above.
Best wishes,
Sue and the MAC Team

Thank You for your response. Actually I mentioned my score in the title. My score is 680. Q-48/V-35. Please advise if the the profile with my GMAT score would provide admissions with the list of schools you provided. If so, what factors needs to be emphasized in my essays and references.
Thanks in advance
