the information you provide appears decent, but it lacks knowledge of your goals, Y MBA etc. Also, whether you have participated in volunteer and other XC activities. Assuming those are all well developed, the schools you mention might be appropriate. WE might be on the lighter side, so make sure it makes sense as to "why now" is the right time to pursue an MBA etc. cheers, alex

Thanks a lot for evaluating my profile. At the same time, I am sorry as I was not specific.

Extra curriculars:

Executive Head of Computer Science Department during college: Several initiatives were started by my team during that time.

Head of Short Film making Club in college : Our initiatives and work have been officially recognised by university.


Cofounded two start-ups which are running and had total 4 working employees. Now only my co-founder and a part-time employee is working for them.


Started several initiatives at my work place and currently leading a team of 2 people.


Community Service: Only worked as a volunteer for one year collecting clothes for children.

I want to do MBA in Strategy and Operations management. My short term goal is to work as Business operations Associate in a Internet Services Firm.

One of the reasons for "why now" is I gained a proper understanding of Corporate world (especially Tech Services World) interacting with Project Managers, Marketing teams and other teams across the globe as part of my work in these 2 years. Hailing from tech background, I have less knowledge in finance and general management and I think MBA will help me in gaining necessary knowledge in these fields to achieve my goal of getting a job as Business Operations Associate.

it does sound like you have a decent enough profile for the schools you are targeting. Obviously the essays will need to tell your story well, but a nice mix with entrepreneurial activities will be helpful I think. cheers, alex
