Hi,
I would summarize my profile below:

GMAT: 680(Q47, V35)
Work ex: 5 years (3.5 yrs in India, 1.5 yrs in US)
Industry: IT services
Undergrad Degree: Bachelor of Engineering
Undergrad Percentage : 72% (3.6 out of 5 GPA)
Added Info : Active member of one of the conservation societies. I am writing a grant proposal for them right now.
Areas of Interest: MBA+MPP, MIB and Full time MBA
School of Interest: ISB, Ross, Stern, Fletcher at Tufts
Objective : Social Entrepreneurship, Job in Organisation like ILO, World Bank, U.N.

My previous score was 620(Q50, V23) and AWA 5.0. I could have and can do better but I don't want to rule out my chances right now. And jump into taking GMAT again. I have a modest just as my score. So I don't fantasize myself in HBS or MIT. My objectives are clearer than choice of my school.

Any suggestions are welcome.

You're probably in the ballpark with the GMAT and perhaps a little light on GPA, but your WE in two countries including the US will help differentiate you in a very large pool of Indian IT applicants. One key will be in articulating a vision for social entrepreneurship that makes sense and can persuade the adcoms. International applications are down this year for US schools, so not a bad year to try to throw in.
