Consider the following points NG_BTG:
Cheers,
- To get a better sense of the profile, it'll be important to understand the brand of your employers. It is also critical to understand your post-MBA plans. Feel free to post those.
- Things are likely to be tough at your current GMAT; if you think you can bump it up, a retake is definitely recommended.
- Most of your ECs looks dated? Recency effect is pretty important on this aspect.

Hi,
I am currently working with Capgemini and previously I have worked with Accenture.
I work as an IT Professional. However, since I have worked for majorly Finance and Banking Clients I am inclined towards exploring career options in Finance domain in some Investment Bank.
Regarding my extra curriculars, I don't have any recent points to quote here for now.
Do you think not much of extra curriculars may become a road block in my application ?
Thanks.

Read what an adcom has to say on the importance of ECs here.
The brands are good but the transition you are trying to make is not necessarily a done deal - IT to Finance is a rare move. Make sure you have assessed and done your homework well here.
