So the bad news is that Round 3 is always tough, for all these schools, although I do see that you would have a chance for some of these schools in Round 1. Therefore, even though it is not what you want at this stage, I would really recommend Round 1 in your case.

However, there is some information missing here, such as extra curricular activities, as well as your post-MBA goals. Especially the latter can make a huge difference when it comes to demonstrating fit so would really need to know more about that in order to give you a recommendation. A lot of the other aspects look good in your case so focus on fit for each school in order to improve your chances.

Good luck!

"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."
