Hi Vivek,

You have decent GMAT and strong work experience for your target schools. You have fair chance at your target schools if you really dedicate good amount of time on your applications. Focus on your strengths, leadership experience and achievements at work place. you have fair chance at UIUC, Scheller, Mendoza, NTU and SMU if you submit strong application.
