Most schools like diversity - and being an odd duck can be a good thing. Most admissions officers tend to be quite savvy about picking candidates that would do well in their MBA programs. So while I can not comment on specific schools until I have spoken with you in depth about your background, I can tell you that you will have a shot at most schools with that background (assuming you get a respectable score). How you convert that shot into a score is very much the question of an authentic presentation of your candidacy and the selection of the "right" schools for you.

Hope that helps.

"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."
