26 yo female (Asian)
5 years of work experience at time of matriculation
Undergrad GPA:3.37 from top 20 private school (studied business)
Career: Human capital + analytics + M&A consulting
Company doesnt sponsor (not sure if this makes a difference)
2 promotions in 4 years (early promotion this year - managing 2-3 people)
GMAT: 690 (Q42 V41)
ECs: Volunteer/mentor organizational involvement; Undergrad leadership positions
Post MBA goal - return to consulting
What are my chances right now for:
1) Wharton
2) Sloan
3) Booth
4) Kellogg
I understand that my gmat score is below the mean for these schools - is there any chance I can get an interview with my score as is? I am considering taking the GRE as well but not sure i have enough time before the deadline.
Thank you!

So basically, your base profile seems pretty good (I definitely would love to hear more detail about your work though), but basically with lower than average GPA + lower than average GMAT you don't have much chance of getting into those schools on your list.
So it's decision time.
Retake and apply to your target schools? OR adjust target schools?
It's up to you, and if you believe you can do better with more studying, I would urge you to retake, even if it means delaying your application - it's far more worthwhile to go to a better school.
I hope this helps!
Best,
JF
