The challenge for you will be to stand out vs. other Indian/IT applicants. A lot of applicants get annoyed or discouraged when they hear me say that, but it's true. So, focus on the things that help you stand out from the pack -- especially the Mukta Foundation, starting a club in college, and being a marathon runner.

I think your chances at a top-five school are slim, but remember that they're slim for everyone (acceptance rates in the 8% - 18% range). From that list, your best odds of success are Duke and Georgetown. But that doesn't meant that you shouldn't apply to 2 or 3 top-tier schools.

Hi, 
Nice if you refer some schools in europe which are good in consultancy. How will you rate HEC paris, RSM, SDA Bocconi, INSEAD, LBS and Cranfield. 
What are my chances in this schools? Which one is best for consultancy? 

Thanks

LBS, INSEAD, and HEC Paris are all good bets for helpng you get into a top-tier consulting firm. But the challenge for you will still be to stand out vs. other similar applicants.
