Your best shot is that applications are down this year. You frankly have a very familiar sounding background, which makes it tough to stand out, but don't lose hope. Your stellar GMAT will help. Think on what makes you different from the next person who has 5 or 6 years of IT WE and is also from India/Asia. Tell stories unique to you which demonstrate leadership, innovation and maturity. remember only you have had your exact experience. Stories get remembered---attributes get forgotten.
