You have good academics with solid ECs which should be a strong positive for your profile. Your inclination towards pharma / life sciences will be well received by business schools and hence you should have a decent chance. Only area of improvement would be your GMAT score which maybe at or below median for a lot of the good MBA programs, so try to rework on that if time permits for Round 1 applications.
Just one piece of advices, since pharma is a largely extensively regulated industry within the US, the recruitment typically happen through the internship program which wont be a part of the 1 year MBA formats in the US schools. Thus, if US is on top of your list, I would suggest have a look at some good 2 year MBA options for pursuing a career within the pharma space. UK and EU can be good options with schools like Said, HEC Paris, IMD, Imperial opening doors to pharma companies within the UK/EU region.
