Hello, Manoj,

Looking at your GPA which appears solid and your GMAT, I'd consider the schools you mention definite reaches. The GMAT would be a bit low for those schools generally, but especially for an Indian with an engineering background, as this is an overrepresented applicant pool that also tends to have high numbers.

There may be other factors that make you more competitive - for example your work experience. From "manager" I can't tell how fast your career trajectory has been or how substantial your impact. If both are relatively high compared to peers, that would make you more competitive. So would compelling goals and/or strong extracurriculars.

I'd consider the two schools possibe reasonable reaches depending on these other factors.

Best regards,
Cindy Tokumitsu
