Kurukshetra University is a good school. Is 69% a First or Second Class Degree?

With a 690 GMAT score you are looking at Tepper as a stretch school. UT Austin (good in technology), UNC Kenan-Flagler and Indian are more target schools. University of Maryland (good in technology as well) is more of a safety school.

Best of luck,
