Hi, Rishika
It sounds like you have a very interesting background. First, you did not mention what year you are in at undergraduate, so make sure you meet the qualifications for each school. It looks like you have done well at your program in a challenging and quantitative major which is good. You did not include your GMAT score, but I would recommend you aim for at least a 700 (and 80th percentile on each section) for your target schools. Do you have clear career goals? While you don't have years of work experience to base this on, you do need to be able to articulate you have a path in mind. On the surface it looks like you have some good experiences, and you will need to be able to demonstrate what skills and experiences you have already that will serve as a foundation for your desired path. Given you are a younger MBA applicant, you will also want to show your maturity applying to these types of programs. Being able to communicate your story effectively and achieving a high enough GMAT score could make you competitive for these programs.
