Profile Evaluation

Hi,

I am 24/F from India. Need your guidance for selection of colleges. I just got done with my exam. Scores as below:
GMAT: 700 (49Q, 35V)
10th: 94%
12th: 85%
Undergrad (Bachelors in Chemistry) : 3.0 : passed out in 2010 (University of Delhi

For the last one and a half years I have been working for DE Shaw India. By Fall next year I it will be 2.5 years. Prior to that did an internship in AES corporation in a Finance domain and an year experience in a non-profit organisation post my undergrad.

ECs were decent:
-Was the school head girl during my school
-Actively involved in cultural events both in school and college
-A passionate dancer (learnt salsa, Indian classical and planning to take up jazz)
-Interested in travelling: Traveled across the country
-Yoga practitioner

Apart from the above I am a FRM level 2 candidate and have a few certifications from National Stock Exchange, India. I have sent my score to the below colleges:
-Darden
-Emory
-Tepper
-UCLA
-Ann-Arbor Michigan

Please let me know about my chances for the above and which other schools do you think suits my profile.
Post-MBA I am looking to get into consulting. Also, financial aid is a major concern while applying for colleges. A few colleges still on my list are Mc Combs, and UC-Berkeley, Wharton (quite a stretch).

Your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Raish
