Hi,
I am an "Indian IT male" with a Bachelor in Technology degree from a reputed state college in India.
I had many subject related to mathematics in my engineering curriculum. Subjects include Mathematics 1,Mathematics 2,Mathematics 3 and Mathematics 4.
Among these subject in second year first semester I failed in subjects Maths 3 and Data Communication, I cleared these subjects in summer term and in third year respectively. Now that clearly reflects in my university transcripts.
My GPA in engineering is 7.35/10.
My GMAT scores.
1)670 Q49 V31,
2)660 Q50 V28 (cancelled score)
3)730 Q 49 (75%) V 41(94%) IR 5(55%) AWA 5(60%) (latest one)
I am going to apply to HKU MBA, NUS MBA, NTU MBA, ISB.
In a recent interview of a member of Wharton adcom, the member said that almost all business schools look for candidates performance in mathematics/quant in his/her graduate curriculum as well as in GMAT score.
After watching that interview I am quite nervous about my academic performance (subjects I failed in and average GPA).
Now my question is how adcoms will perceive my transcript and GMAT score from qant/maths point of view, will that affect my chances in above mentioned business schools. Shall I mention my scores (although irrelevant internationally) in competitive exams like CAT and XAT (which are conducted in India and are considered tough as far as quant is concerned), my quant scores in these exams are above average.
P.S. Retaking GMAT is really not an option for me now.

Thanks for sharing your profile and situation. The way the ad comm evaluates your quant profile is pretty spot on from what you heard from the Wahrton ad comm, so there should be a bit of concern. At this point there is not much you can do about that. For most their quant grades are low but to fail a class does not represent well. You have a good GMAT score and a competitive quant score within that so I think your target school list still makes sense but if there is an explanation for your failed classes you may want to surface that in an optional essay.
I don't think referencing past standardized tests in India probably won't resonate much unfortunately

Thank you for your reply Dozie.
Your suggestion of explaining failure in undergrad subjects in an optional essay is really impressive.
In an optional essay, can I compensate my failure in 2 subjects with good grades in relevant subjects?
