It really is not possible to accurately provide percentage chance of admittance without reading your essays and recommendations and listening in on your interview. These are the most important parts of the process so without these I cannot provide a more specific forecast. I would just be guessing.

In selecting schools you should first find out which schools will consider you without the full time experience.

Of that list, make sure that your numbers fall within their averages. Be sure to include some schools that are not top 10/20.

Akhil:

Just to reiterate what Stacy has said in her previous replies to you, with the very limited data that you provide it's almost impossible to quantify with percentages your chances of getting admitted to the schools that you list. Furthermore, Stacy's primary role as an admissions expert on this forum is to provide admissions strategy advice--not to guess probabilities. Please avoid making these repetitive posts.

Also, in the future please avoid creating new threads for your posts. Just reply to one thread if you have further questions. Thank and best of luck.
