Your overall score should be fine, but you will need to convince the schools of your verbal abilities in your essays. Actually I view this as something of a catch-22. The schools will pay extra attention to your essays because your verbal score is low, but if you produce stunning essays they may question the disjoint between your verbal score and the quality of your essays.

Obviously, you Q will be a plus anywhere.

I am in the same boat,

applied ....got wait-listed then dinged from Booth..........even though i got 7 yrs management experience from Fortune 100 companies...

It depends which schools you want to apply, they will definitely look favorably on your quant. It will come down to low percentile on verbal...........

Now i am retaking gmat to improve verbal....
