Hi Anshuman,
You have a very diverse and interesting profile, and I think many top business schools will be interested in getting to know you!

Academically, you seem potentially vulnerable -- not sure about that GPA but it looks to be a bit neutral, and your GMAT is also a little low for some target schools. It would help to see the percentages on your Q and V, but in any case we'd want to see you at around 720 for Wharton or NYU Stern.

Other top MBA programs might be a stronger bet: UCLA, USC would probably both be interested in your internationalism, university leadership, high energy and entrepreneurial spirit. Choosing your target schools will require a clear presentation of your own goals, particularly in the short-term -- first step out of the MBA -- so that would be an important strategic area to drill down on.

If you have first-hand experience of any of your target schools, such as a campus visit or friends who attend, that would also be a great add to your strategy. Many people don't realize that your goals are as much a strategy component in your application as your GMAT and work history: schools want to see that you know why you are applying to this particular program, so showing how much you know about the program, and why in particular this program is a good fit for your goals, can make you a strong candidate for the schools on your list.

Good luck!
