Hi Viren,
You've got some great stuff here! Love the IIT and the GMAT. To help you succeed in your MBA admissions goals, your focus, of course, will be on differentiating yourself from others in your same demographic bracket. Leadership, Impact, Internationalism, Initiative, smart school targets and one or two unusual stories from your background would make a good basis for your applications. The good news is that your core numbers are strong, so effective MBA admissions consulting would definitely benefit you.

Good luck this year!
