Thanks for sharing your profile. You're going to share a bit more information before I can truly help out with recommendations but I will say your GMAT/GPA score will heavily factor in when programs review your application. Coming from a very competitive applicant pool (indian male) you should plan on exceeding average scores at your target schools. Also, as you work to identify target programs these should align with your personal and professional development goals.

Now being qualified on paper is one thing but standing out in the process is another, so you want to work to identify elements of your profile that shine in the eyes of the AdComm. Also, you did not mention any extra-curriculars so hopefully you have been engaged in some of those as well.

Hope this helps!

What undergrad school did you go to?
What extra-curriculars are you involved in?
What do you want to do after B school?
Tell me more about your experience. What do you do, how have your promotions been? Are you a top performer? Big salary increases etc?
