Hey dude,
Things look pretty good for you. The only slight negative I see is your 2 years of work experience, which anyhow will be two and 8 months when you apply, so you should be fine. You have good grades from a good school, good work in a good industry, and a very good GMAT, so all is in order.

Your career change should make some sense, so even if you are going to change industries, if you stick to the same function (financial analyst) then you should have no problem at all selling that. I think your school list is excellent as you have some much tougher and much easier schools on it, and it's a nice range.


Basically other than preparing your essays, I think you are good to go for next year. You MAY want to visit all the schools on your list before you apply. It helps in sooo many ways (both in terms of decisions you need to make about your life and in terms of knowledge/contacts from the schools), I can only advise it as a worthwhile investment.


Best,
JF
