Need to target at least 330 GRE as an Indian male. Playing football and coaching other MBA applicants alone isn’t going to cut it for ECs. Spend the next year trying to beef up your profile overall. Stern might be a reach (even the Tech MBA) with high stats given the volume of exceptional applicants they receive. If your stats don’t improve, you might want to look into ISB and Oxford with your current stats. Decent programs and they might be slightly more flexible with their entry requirements.
