AFAIK, work experience cannot be compensated by a high GMAT. A low GPA might be. :)

What other schools are you planning to apply to?

If you still want to go to Columbia- do check out their MS in Management Sciences and Engineering. Stanford has a similar course. You might be a great fit for those programs!

All the best for your applications and interviews.

I think you should reapply once you get a couple more years of work experience. with your gmat and about 4 years experience you will have a great chance

Is it safe to say no invitations for interviews have been sent so far?

When should we expect interviews for EA applicants to be sent?

3 weeks seems to be when you can expect to receive a decision on whether you will be invited to interview or not
