I have scoured the forums and i need some realistic inputs ...plzzz

My case:
1.) 8 + years US experience - civil engineer (pure tech, design and stuff.. limited proj management)

2.) Have completed 1/3 Part time mba program at a one of top 10 Part Time programs in US..(had to stop because i could not raise student loan, and visa status issue.. before you recommend to complete this program.. i am at a situation where cost of completing the remaning courses will be more thanstarting fresh at ISB)

3.) Pretty bad scores.. 550, 620..;( (planning to make one last attempt in dec 2009, post second deadline for ISB)

4.) Have dabbled in entrepreneurship:
a.) Outsourced engineering work to india.. generated billing worth 30,000$ (12 month period) (until my partner pulled a fast one on me....lesson learnt: even if friends for 15yrs.. make sure it is on a piece of paper..legit )

b.) 2nd project : have a website/business plan ready, but realized it is expensive to hire programers in india..so its in a state of suspension now.. ;-)..until i find some angle investors..;-)

c.) 3rd project: did extensive market research..(i am sure if i had continued..i would have found GOD..;-).. and realized market was very complicated and not for small fries...hence aborted.

5)


I am not trying to sell my sob story, just a realistic take ....plz.. if you have the time..

1.) what are my chances...of even making it to past screening. (if i meet the dec 1 deadline)

2.) Should i try for next year?

3.) Will I hurt my chances if i am a re-applicant.

:banghead:

Thanks you all for your patience and time..

cheers and best of luck..
