Dear Puneet,

Your chances will vary depending on the schools you apply to and what you score on your GMAT. With a very common profile and grades being below the average, your GMAT score becomes more significant. I would suggest reviewing our forum for posts with other candidates with similar profiles for tips and suggestions on how to distinguish your application. Likewise, I would suggest looking for smaller programs in the top 50 in the US.

Best of luck,
Lisa
