Speakupdude,
Thanks for your post.
To answer your questions:
1. Assuming your GMAT ends up in the in the outer reaches of the solar system, although it doesn't have to be perfect, I believe you are competitive at your target programs. I almost always recommend at least one safety school, and you don't have one. So if you are willing risk a reapplication, you don't need one. If you really want to start business school in the fall, add 1-2. I don't like to refer to Duke as a safety, but for you it might be.
2. You will need to connect the dots for your application readers. You should be able to do so. Adcoms realize that young adults do a certain amount of experimentation when they start working. That's normal and even good. Hopefully by the time you go for an MBA, you really know what you want to do. You don't need to have known it when you graduated college nor have had some overarching theme to all your positions. You just need to connect the dots and be able to show growth throughout. As long as growth is a common thread, you should be fine.
If you would like help making your case, please keep Accepted in mind. We are currently have an Early Bird Special and offing 10% off all non-rush MBA services.
Best,
Linda
