Hi
You have a very strong profile overall but my concern is a lowish GPA and average GMAT, specially for the likes of HSW...
Outside of HSW, you stand a fair shot at the other schools.. However you will still need to explain the lowish GPA in the optional essays.
Reach out to us if you need our help with crafting a strong application.
Best,

Hello AWasey,
Apologies for the delayed response but we hope this finds you in time still.
While the leadership experience, career growth, and meaningful extra-curricular activities will strengthen your profile, the low GPA and average GMAT score may prove to be a setback (even more so considering you are applying in Round 2).
Our suggestion would be to retake the GMAT and then apply; a score in excess of 750 will give you a good chance at your target schools.
Hope this helps.
All the best!
