Hi Everyone,
I am an aspiring candidate MBA fall 2018. I would highly appreciate your suggestions with school selection. Below are the details regarding my profile.
--> Indian IT Applicant, Female
--> Have 6+ years of experience in industry
-->Working in one of the most leading banks in the world as a Assistant Manager(Senior Software Developer)
-->GMAT -650(Q49 V29)..
Most of the people I have consulted with have told me that only problem I have is a low gmat as per Indian standard.
Schools I have applied in so far are :
-->USC Marshal(R2)
-->UC Davis(R2)
-->Paul Merage Irvine(R3..R2 was in november so couln't target that)
-->BYU(R2)
-->Eller(R2--in process)
My questions are:
Since I haven't got call from any college so far, I am bit anxious now, so what could be the chances of getting into any of these?
Does the women factor( Desperate times! ) and a good financial banking domain experience will add on to my profile?
Can I target any other good colleges around Arizona and California or fall 2018 as per my profile?
If not able to make it this fall, can I target some good MIS program which starts in winter, again around Arizona and California?
Hoping for a quick response!

First things first I have moved your post to a more appropriate forum.
Next here are my 2 cents on your conundrum->
I am in the same dilemma. I applied to only 3 schools because I got my GRE pretty late.
Strike out Eller from your list. Eller is a very very bad choice. It admits almost every candidate. It is an extremely **** school!
And why are moving away from the MBA?
If MBA was your dream-> In Will Smith's words " If you got a dream, you gotta protect that"
Women factor does help a lot.
As I see it you have two choices ->
Choice 1 => Apply to a few other schools like SMU. Why specifically Arizona or Cali? There are a few other options (not many since its already feb end)
Choice 2 => Wait just 5 more months. With an a average profile (I too have one) your best chance is R1. R2 and R3 are a bloodbath for Indians.
My vote is for choice number 2!
All the best

Thanks for the quick reply.
For choice 1:Actually my husband is currently working on california and I don't want to spend my next two years living so much far away. So as of now, I am considering my options which can be practically possible for us.
For Choice 2: That is definitely the Plan B now but I am more worried for that because with one more year of experience, my profile will move towards negative side as I already have 6.5 years of experience. In that case, I have to consider retaking GMAT to add a plus I guess.
