Thank you for your question. I'm not really sure if you're asking me to suggest schools that I think you would be competitive at, but I don't feel I know enough about you to do that effectively. Instead let me give you some general observations.

With a low GPA, low GMAT, and no work experience, gaining admission to any business school will be quite challenging at this point. This point is especially true given your demographic, which is an extremely competitive one, and given how competitive business school admissions are. While your technical abilities seem quite strong, and your college activities are varied and demonstrate initiative and leadership, I am not sure at this time that they are sufficient to offset the academics and work experience. If you work for 2-3 years in positions showing increasing responsibility, and re-take the GMAT and improve your score, I think your odds will improve.

Best of luck

Thanks for following up. Unfortunately I can't really help you; I am not that familiar with 2nd or 3rd tier programs.

Best of luck however.

"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."
