Hey Ishaan,
I am an MBA graduate myself (SDA Bocconi, Milan - 2011 Batch) and can definitely tell you thing from my experience. Currently I am working in Korea at Samsung Electronics in Global Account Management role.
You have a great GMAT but you are bit short on the experience front. You need to be very careful in deciding the right time to go for the MBA and it depends on person to person as everyone has different motivations.
Choosing the school is again is very crucial. Without the details of your profile its hard to tell your chances at Harvard/Stanford or other Ivey league schools. If you can share some details about your profile, I can help you with some clear suggestions.
Currently I am planning to mentor MBA aspirants to plan their MBA and reach their goals (be it specific school or scholarship or anything.) I am already helping one student for Columbia Business School for Mock Interviews. Let me know if you would like to seek guidance or help from me to reach your target schools. I am not selling any MBA consulting here, its just my personal thing which I do for free.
You have a good potential, and with proper planning (short term/long term) you can achieve great results.
Let me know !
All the best !
Cheers
Dhiraj
