Hi goutam.m,

Your numbers indicate you have the intellect and focus to thrive in a top tier MBA program. Nothing about the information written makes me think there is any reason why you cannot be admitted, but nothing stands out telling me why you should be admitted. All of the reasons why a top program would admit you are in the details of your work experience, personal experiences, personality, values and overall story. These are things that clearly need to be fleshed out, beginning with career goals.

Remember that admissions teams are looking to cultivate future leaders, so any leadership and management experience you can highlight will be important. I recommend you read this case study of an engineer who was accepted into Columbia, Tuck, and MIT:

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
