Thanks for sharing your profile. You have some impressive work experience that will be the strongest part of your application. Your GMAT is solid but if you are looking for the top 10 it will be a bit low as the avg is closer to 730 these days. I don't think there will be any questions about your aptitude so things will come down to how best you position your candidacy. It will be really important for you to highlight ways in which you stand out from the hordes of other applicants. I think your sweet spot will be schools in the Top 10 - 20 range

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
