1) Brief description of your full-time work experience.
Started directly after my engineering in Biotechnology to join as a Research Associate at Evalueserve in Intellectual Property Research in Healthcare and Consumer Goods Sector. I worked here for 3.4 years. Got one promotion notably during recession when otherwise 10 people were laid off in my team and then got internal responsibility position promotion as Project manager.
Left to join Grail Research, to gain more experience of business aspect of healthcare industry in the Market Research Team. I wanted more out of my experience and really figure out my next logical step so I left Grail after 10 months.
Started freelancing in Intellectual Property and exploring start up options and work on my major weakness in People engagement, due to which I was also not growing as I envisioned. During this period I traveled worked with several non-profits and profits along with my family business, grew my cycling club and also worked on my comm skills at Toastmasters. I was looking for entrepreneurial opportunities in Healthcare/Energy space so I worked with few start ups for free... After 10 months of all this I did not find courage to start on my own due to some financial reasons and long gestation period in healthcare. I have recently joined a innovative start up in healthcare whom I met at a networking event and plan to grow this early stage start up with the product I am responsible to build by March next year and learn healthcare industry in safe environment of other's risk.
Post MBA I want to come back to this start up with increased skills or launch my own business or work in healthcare industry.

3) College info: Panjab University, Chandigarh, India. BE Biotechnology 2007, 62% (3.69/4.0 as per WES report)

6) Your target programs.

2nd Choice: ISB, NUS, Texas A&M Mays, Boston Univ
A) Are my choices (Target schools) and goals realistic, or should I make some adjustements?
B) How to unify my work ex profile as there is little break, but it is genuine well thought break I took

Thanks in advance for the answer.
