Its extremely difficult to tell you how good of a chance you have against all these schools. But i can safely say that there is nothing in your profile that will prevent you from getting into these schools ;). But if you want to shortlist schools, i would suggest you to briefly provide your reasons for an MBA, and provide your short term and long term goals along with your geographic preference; this will help people in giving you advice on short listing schools.

Well my short term goal is to join one of the topnotch Hi-Tech consulting firm to become a good consultant.... My long-term goal is to climb up ladder to assume strategic leadership roles.

Well working with infosys for 28 odd months... i have gained the necessary technology knowledge.. more over i have noticed that am quiet flexible to new technologies and am able to pick up soon... and the only thing i need to polish is my domain and business knowledge... i should get to know abt the nuances of business to atain my goal of becoming an consultant... so i need a MBA.

hope i answered your question :)
