Hi,
I am an Indian Male having around 5 years of work experience in Top US MNC. All of my work has been in India and I have almost 0 international work experience. I have some good NGO experience and some initiatives that I've taken at my job in the individual projects that have been assigned to me.
I want to get into product management post my MBA.
Which schools would be good enough for me at this profile ?

Any help,
Thanks.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for your reply.
Here are my stats.
1. Graduation College : Tier-1 but a non-IIT Engineering college.
2. My alma-mater did not have a GPA system. We were graded on an absolute scale of 100. I
got 70%. Was in top-25% of my batch.
3. I was the President of Student Body in my graduate school. I was also the president of an international level tech-fest that was organised when I was in my 3rd year of engineering.
4.I also created a social body called Neighbor-hood project as the president of student body in my college and imparted income generating skills to around 70 kids hailing from the slums from around the school.
5. Was among the first 5 students from college who got a job in a top IT Product Based company.
6. In individual capacity filed 3 patents and one of them resulted in a job offer for a higher doctorate level position from the company's headquarters' based out of US.
6. Created some ground breaking technology stuff and lead a team of 4 creating a not so ever possible increase in revenue of a product.
7. Led some volunteer activities in company's CSR initiative.
8.GMAT:700.

My Disadvantages:
1. Non-IIT grad school.
2. Not so much leadership experience, mostly because I was in IT RnD and you don't get to "lead" a team until you are 10 years old in the industry.
3. No international experience.
4. Not so good GMAT score.(750 ?)

Please let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks in advance,
Suyash

My advice - Go on LinkedIn. Look at the profiles of candidates working in Product Management in companies like Google, Cisco, Microsoft and other companies on your post-MBA target list. Look at the B-schools they graduated from in various countries and try to find out about their experiences with the schools by trying to connect with them. Then connect with those schools to find more information.
