The CGPA is fairly low and you must address the reason for the same in the essay which allows you to address the extenuating circumstances in your profile. The good news, however, is that your GMAT score should be able to compensate for the low GPA . The leadership experience, the experience of working with a renowned firm, and client-handling experience in diverse domains will further strengthen your case.
At this point, all we recommend is that you focus on putting forth a set of essays that adequately represent your strengths, as well as your motivation for MBA. Ensure that your short-term and long-term goals are in close sync with each other and join the dots in your story well.

With your existing profile and a set of well-drafted essays, you stand a very good chance at Simon Rochester!
