Hey there,
Well you have a very interesting split there between very high GMAT and very low GPA. IT's cool that you got that Awesome GMAT and that you also have some good reason for your low GPA. However, I'd love to know more about your work experience: Where do you work? What do you do? How quickly have you advanced? Do you have any leadership? What are your great achievements? Do you have notable community service or extra curriculars?

All of this will have a strong bearing on your chances.

But basically if all is good, I think ranking 10-30 should be a good spread for you.

Hope this helps!
Best,
Jon
