Hi Lavanya,
You have a pretty interesting profile. I feel like you might have a chance at these programs, especially if you could raise your GMAT score. Any possibility of a retake?
The only other downside to your profile is that your background is IT, but given that you've gained a lot of leadership experience at some really high profile companies, I think you'll be fine on that count.
I think Anderson is a very reasonable target. Booth and Kellogg are slight reaches. There's a lot in between -- have you considered Duke or Michigan?
Good luck!
