Hey dude,
Well, the honest answer (maybe not the one you are looking for though) is to retake the GMAT. You are really young, you have your career ahead of you, and if you believe you can get 30-40 points more, it would even be worth your while to retake and delay your application by one year. Keep two things in mind - you only do this ONCE, and secondly, the school will define your job opportunities.
Best,
