Hi there,
Well there is a lot we don't know about you here, such as more details on what you've accomplished at work, and your leadership experiences, community and/or extracurricular involvement, etc. But overall I would probably suggest a GMAT re-take, yes, given your top choice schools. And you did have one very high practice test score... if you've been studying recently I'd say go ahead and take it again sooner rather than later, with a bit of extra prep. Schools will take the highest score and right now you're well below the average at top schools such as those you've mentioned.
Good luck and keep us posted!
PS-- Go Canes! (sorry Gators... UM and Miami-native here)

Thanks for the advice and I was born and raised on South Beach so I know all about Miami. Still, you got to love the Swamp!
