Please evaluate my profile
Indian/IT/Male
Age-25
CGPA: 8.62/10
gmat:710(q50 v37) awa-5
WE: 2.5 years in an IT consultancy giant. Role of an Individual performer. Client was one of the US top 3 banks and was offered a manager role subsequently by them in their IT captive in India. It has been 4 months with them till now. If I apply this year, would be 4 years by matriculation. Current Role: Managing a 13 member team. Involved in Hiring for other teams. I have taken an initiate to train other employees on Retail Banking domain and active in other employee engagement initiatives. I am also part of company's University Outreach program for recruiting graduates directly from colleges.
International Exp: 4 months in Germany on an internship.
3 months in US for an onsite assignment during my first job.
Foreign Language: Basic German
EC: President of Student's council of my college. The council is chosen by body of Associate directors and not by student voting. Organized multiple fest as part of it.
Community Service: None
Post MBA goals: I want to work in the finance sector(preferably in Retail banking) in future as all my experience is in that domain. I am also interested in Production/Operations management.
The reason I feel that this is the right time to do a MBA because another year of Work experience will not add anything more to my current profile. Reaching a position of team management in IT industry in India takes at least 5 years generally and I have achieved that in 3. I really suspect my chances of going any higher in the next 2-3 without an MBA.
I am wondering what B schools can I target with this profile. Can you please comment on my chances of admission to any of the below schools? Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.
HBS
Chicago Booth
MIT
Yale
Columbia
Thanks in Advance

) I really do like your leading a team of 13, and getting involved int he hiring process. This can be VERY strong stuff if you write your stories well. your international exp. is also unique, and you might wanna play that up in your application.
