Hi Prateek,

You must write strong application essays, work hard on interviews and get 690+ GMAT score, if you plan to apply b-schools in US. You may target schools like: Emory, Indiana-Kelley, Ohio-Fisher, Arizona-Carey, Vanderbilt-Owen, Wisconsin-Madison, BYU-Marriott, Texas-Mays, Urbana-Champaign, Mendoza, Foster, Smeal, Tulane-Freeman and IOWA-Tippie. However, you may also try your chances in b-schools by clicking https://www.apphelp.co.in/b-school-selector.php

Let me know if you require assistance in school selection or profile evaluation for free. You may PM your details.

Regards
Erina

Take your Gmat and let us know how you do.

Also, why do you not think adcom won't "count" your family business experience? Just because it is a small firm does not lessen the experiences you have had.
