I think you have a shot at the schools you mentioned, but if you can get a score that is more in line with the mock scores you have received it will greatly improve your chances.

Give it one more go, and good luck!

Your GMAT score is not that low for the schools you are targeting. Kelley's average GMAT is 671, Mays's is 648 and Smeal's is 636.
If it helps, we've seen many cases of applicants getting admitted with low GMAT scores, as you can see here: https://www.aringo.com/Aringo_TOP_MBA_GMAT_Results.htm
