Hey rajsingh1432000, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I am sad to say, but this thread is lonely, so thought I'd post in here to try and help out. Some potential topics that might help:
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
You're definitely a couple years younger than average, but there are ways to overcome this. You'll have to show maturity in your application, mostly in whatever essays you have to write but also ask your recommendations to highlight this in their letters (in a subtle way).
Other than that, your chances are good based on grades & GMAT. Your ECs and internships make sense, and VC is somewhat sexy in the eyes of adcoms.
As admissions consultants would say, your stats are good, it's all about execution. Make sure your essays are solid, show maturity, and tell a coherent and consistent story about where you want to go and how the MSF will help you get there.
