As you know, you have targeted two very competitive schools so nothing is guaranteed. However, if you are able to put together a strong application (compelling essays and a well written resume), I think you have a good shot. Your GMAT and grades are very commendable and will make you a viable candidate. Your background will also help differentiate you which is great. It is now your job to explain why business school is the next logical step for you and how you plan to use your degree in the future. If you are able to pull it all together, I think you may be successful. It may also make sense for you to apply to one or two slightly "safer" schools (something like Columbia or Booth). Best of luck to you! Let us know if you have other questions or would like assistance pulling it all together.
