Hi B,
Thanks for your post. As you probably know from reading this forum, Indian IT candidates are in one of the most competitive applicant pools. And while your profile and expereince are stellar, its hard to access your chances of admissions - esp in this ultracompetitve admissions year.

I would consider adding several 'safety schools' to your list, in case you do not get accepted to any of the schools listed below. Maybe a few schools in the top10-15 range.

Let us know if you have any more questions.

How about a one year MBA degree from IE business school, madrid or London Business School?

Since I dont have much experience as a manager, will a one year MBA degree suit me?
