Hi there,
Thanks for your post. Definitely be sure to work on that GMAT-- with a strong GMAT I think you'd have a shot at the programs on your list.
I'd focus on that Team Lead experience and how you developed skills of motivating and influencing others and working as part of a team, to help you stand out from all of the very-technical applicants who may otherwise be similar to you.
Also good to hear you've done some community service and have some leadership experience in that area and some other interesting accomplishments.
You have not mentioned unless I missed it, your goals or your 'why'... why do you want the MBA? Keep in mind that if you don't do a good job of answering that (either implied or direct) question through your applications, the rest of your profile may not matter either way.
Ok as for schools, with a strong GMAT I think you've got a solid list of schools, yes. Gouizeuta in the Atlanta area might be slightly bigger-city than the others; Mannheim may not be super warm climate, just minor things to your points. You could research McCombs, Vanderbilt, Hough (U Florida-- there is your warm climate for sure!), still great schools even if some are out of the 'top 25'. You could look into top programs in Spain or Italy, or Australia, for some warmth as well, just a thought.
Keep us posted with your questions!
