Hello abhatti, thanks for your question.

You did not provide much information about your work experience, college performance, extracurricular activities, or post-MBA goals.

Because you come from an overrepresented demographic that scores disproportionately high on the GMAT, your 650 overall score will be a challenge on your application. Have you considered retaking the test?

I am happy to comment more with further information. My initial gut opinion is that Stanford and Harvard would be reaches for you.

Best of luck,
Brian
