It really does depend on many factors, such as type of business you've created, in which industry, etc. Also if you have no traditional employment experience, you could be viewed as a wildcard, since you're only as employable as your last job. Your GPA and GMAT (especially your low quant score) will make it difficult for a top 10 school to admit you, but I would think an 11-25 school would give you a serious look if you took some supplemental calculus and statistics classes at your local college to show them you're serious about school.

Look for a school that is trying to move their program more into entrepreneurship to give yourself into an edge. Your background in film could be interesting to a number of schools with a strength in that area such as USC and therefore a strong network to insert you into after graduation.

Thanks for the feedback Sieken!

I should clarify. I do have traditional employment experience. I worked as regional manager of a moving and storage franchise in college for several years.

Entrepreneurship is definitely an American thing. I would suggest go for a specialized Masters program if you will be looking for a job after your Masters.
