Dear plodder_81,
While I think it is possible you could gain admission to those programs, it also highly probable you will not based on your current profile. Your education and work experience are extremely common for applicants from India and thus it is hard to distinguish yourself in the applicant pool. Your GMAT is actually low to be competitive, so I would encourage you to retake the test and get your score up at least 40 points. It is critical for you to put together a strong application package in order to gain admission--even with a higher GMAT score. If you put forth the effort and seek expert advice, I think you might achieve admission to one of these schools.
Good luck,
Lisa
