Hi! Your GMAT is on the lower end of the range for both of these schools, but it seems that your quant score is strong, which will help your candidacy. What's difficult is that many applicants with your background get much higher GMAT scores, so you will be competing against them in the application process. Otherwise, what will help you submit a strong application is to highlight your professional accomplishments, not responsibilities, and look for ways to differentiate yourself from other applicants. One thing you don't have listed here are your extra-curricular activities, which will be closely examined by the AdCom. They want to see applicants who take on leadership roles both at work and in their outside life.

Best of luck,

Rachel Beck
