Hi,
1. The actual GMAT score would be important.
2. In terms of career goals in product management or consulting do try to map your preparation for the transition in terms of skills required for the roles. Rest everything is good. Of course, the application process has other components which will need adequate research and revisions to ace them.
All the best!

Yes I helped quite a few candidates to apply in subsequent rounds after facing rejection in the initial rounds. Many of them converted their call as well.
