Hello,

From the information you've provided, I'd consider your target schools to be mainly reasonable reaches with some variation in competiveness in this group, and IESE an on-par. I think HBS might be almost beyond reach for various reasons - not because of lack of qualification though - but I don't know enough about your profile to really tell. Degree of leadership, career advancement/impact, and similar factors would have a hugee bearing on your viability as a candidate for HBS and indeed would for other top programs as well.

Best regards,
