    Why don't you try for some big shot universities?? If i am not wrong, your GRE score should easily cross 1200 mark. Since you have good academics, certifications, projects and experience as well you can try for these universities....

    University of Texas - Austin
    University of California System
    University of Pennsylvania
    Cornell University
    Columbia University
    University of Pittsburgh

    Don't worry too much about of your chances in getting in those university as your academics and experience should take care of it. And always remember that "YOU HAVE TO DREAM BIG". All the Best!

    Give a shot at the universities that i and harsha have mentioned but reduce some safe universities options as safe university is just for the sake of i20. If you can afford, try with 3 safe, 3 mod, 3 dream universities.

    Select some safe,mod and dream universities from above list and apply. All the Best!
