Hi Aviralmanit111 , you have a good academic background and relevant work experience as a Business Analyst, which is a good foundation. Your leadership experience in college and at the workplace, as well as internships at IIM Bangalore and other sectors, are valuable and demonstrate well-roundedness.
However, your GMAT FE score of 555 is below the typical range for top MBA programs like IIMs and ISB, where a score of 645+ would significantly strengthen your profile. If you're aiming for R3, I recommend retaking the GMAT and targeting at least a 615-655 to be competitive. While you can highlight your strong work experience, leadership roles, and awards, a higher GMAT score will improve your chances of admission to top programs. Additionally, be clear about your post-MBA goals to align your profile with your career aspirations.
If you’d like, we are happy to discuss more about your leadership skills, impact created, challenges faced, awards and achievements and extracurriculars to assess your chances to top B-schools and strengthen your application with impactful stories.

Hello Aviralmanit111,
No score can guarantee an interview call; however, a score in excess of 665 will give you a fair chance. Needless to say, the higher the better.
All the best!
