The GMAT score is basically a hurdle they make you get over. Right or wrong, schools are ranked heavily based on the average GMAT score. If you got a low score, I'd recommend you retake it if possible. It's definitely possible to get in with a low score, but everything else in your profile should be compelling.
They do look for a diverse class, but if you're coming from a non-traditional background, you need to show a logical progression for your path to business school and a reason why you need an MBA now. For what it's worth, my wife went to undergrad for design and is also going to be going to business school.

Yeah and it makes sense, I did my undergard in Design, but been in Finance for the past six years… too late to re-take the GMAT…I better study for it harder and apply again next year, will have more work experience by then too…
