You seem to be a strong applicant. My biggest concern would be the GMAT. I am not clear - do you think you will improve over the 590?

What is maintenance supervisor? How many people did you supervise? How did you progress over the five years? Depending on your answers, I think you could be competitive.

The GMAT is NOT the most important aspect, but it is the one thing that is equal across all applicants. And in this competitive rpocess you want to maximize each component of your application. They will not toss you aside with a 600 GMAT. But the burden on other areas of your application become much bigger. I have spoken to adcomm members about this and they will encourage you to apply with your GMAT. However, while I believe you do have a chance even with a 600, your chance is significantly lower.

UCLA is pretty numbers sensitive, so you definitely want to maximize the GMAT score. Good luck!

"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."
