Hello,

Let's breakdown your profile:

Academics: Taking your GMAT and GPA into consideration, I think your academic profile is in the average-low range.

Professional experience: as an Indian IT professional, your professional experience won't differentiate you too much from your peer group. You've worked for excellent clients, though, so I'd definitely highlight that in your application. Still, not a ton of opportunity for leadership given your technical role.

Extracurricular: Much of this is from college, but you were clearly very active, so that's good. Again, this is common for your peer group, though.

Community: Teaching is great. Glad to see this!

As for which programs you apply to, that really depends on what you are looking for in a school. You have to find programs that fit for your career goals, cultural/social needs, learning style, etc. I can only give you a target range of programs to consider. I'd say you should focus on programs like Ohio State (Fisher), Boston University, Georgia Tech, Arizona State.

Hope this helps as a starting point,
Mili

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
