Extra Curricular:

I am looking to apply for the below list of colleges:

A few points for you to ponder on Madhav
  1. From an years of experience perspective, sure you are in the right spot. Though you have elaborated on your ECs, you haven't done the same for your work-ex. Just the name of your employers tells nothing about the quality of your experience. Your experience is the only thing that could potentially take you places - so feel free to elaborate please.
  2. The above point becomes even more relevant given the super aggressive list you have there. Your GMAT won't help you much. For reasons mentioned here, I won't make school-specific comments, but from what I read on your post, surely you will need much more to break into some of these.
Hope this helps some.

Cheers,
