I have the following profile, and would like to have it evaluated by you:

GMAT: 740
GPA: 6.8 on a scale of 10 (frankly, quite mediocre in my college)
Doing my Undergrad in engineering from a Top-10 engineering institute in India
Extras: I was a national level sportsman, and have won numerous individual gold medals at the national level
I have been selected to represent the country in (and will be attending) the 5th World Youth Congress and the 20th International Youth leadership conference this July
I am an active member of the marketing team of the Indian Youth Climate Network
I am the batch representative & active member of my college debating team
I am the manager of the master of ceremonies (MOC) team at various fests in college

I am extremely interested in social entrepreneurship, and have interned at a startup social enterprise for a month before. I intend to do a fellowship (roadtrip for social change) and a project on social entrepreneurship under a suitable professor this summer.

Anyway, that's the long & short of my profile. I intend to apply for an MS in management in top European B-schools and some select MBA programmes in the US which encourage early career applications. What would you suggest? And would you suggest I do some a good course in a quantitative subject to better showcase my academic abilities?

Thanks in advance

Your GMAT is strong and your profile is interesting, but, you will have a challenging time being accepted to a top US MBA program without signficiant work experience (4 years is about right). The problems with "early career" applicants is that these students usually don't have enough professional "real world" experience to contribute in a meaningful way to the classroom. Those without experience are often also not as sure of their future career path and simply don't have the experience necessary to secure a great job after graduation so top programs will steer clear. If you can prove something different about yourself (professional experience while in college, etc.) you might have a better shot.

But, with your profile, I'd suggest finding an interesting job and working for a few years and then trying to go to a truly "top" program (definitely something that would be within reach for you with a 740). I think the investment would be worthwhile.
