Dear Rahul,
Your current target list is great programs, but these are reach programs for you based on the minimal information included in your post. You have common experience and education in the global MBA applicant pool, so finding a way to distinguish your application from the competition will be key to your success. I encourage you to rethink your list, perhaps trade out some of these schools for more reasonable schools where your GMAT is closer to the average. For tips on identifying other programs, please read our sticky on school selection.
Good luck,
Lisa

Thanks a lot for ur response..You advice is highly appreciated and valuable..
I agree that i do not fall into the average GMAT scores which these schools accept...But my aim is to study from a reputed college so that i have the brand name behind me to back me up for the rest of my life..Its my childhood dream to study in the top universities..
I have some key points with which i can highlight in my profile...for example..I am a basketball player and have represented my school, college and university for eight years..I have won many national and state ranks for maths and science talent examination...etc etc..i have also completed professional certifications like six sigma, business analysis which were outside of the scope of my regular work...
If not these colleges, which other colleges would you suggest me to look into...Please help me this as i am really confused whether to go ahead with my applications or to retake the GMAT...
