Thank you for your question. I'm not really sure if you're asking me to suggest schools that I think you would be competitive at, but I don't feel I know enough about you to do that effectively. Instead let me give you some general observations.

With a low GPA, low GMAT, and no work experience, gaining admission to any business school will be quite challenging at this point. This point is especially true given your demographic, which is an extremely competitive one, and given how competitive business school admissions are. While your technical abilities seem quite strong, and your college activities are varied and demonstrate initiative and leadership, I am not sure at this time that they are sufficient to offset the academics and work experience. If you work for 2-3 years in positions showing increasing responsibility, and re-take the GMAT and improve your score, I think your odds will improve.

Best of luck

Thanks for following up. Unfortunately I can't really help you; I am not that familiar with 2nd or 3rd tier programs.

Best of luck however.
