Hi Optimistic Applicant and thanks for your post!
Your profile looks solid. I think that it wouldn't hurt to take a quantitatively based class to create an alternate transcript, but it also looks like your quant. GMAT score was strong. I would think that your strategy should be in applying R1, and that yes, you'd be a competitive applicant at top schools. That being said, there is a big difference in terms of chances of admissions between Babson and Harvard, and they are very different places. If entrepreneurship is something you're considering, then you might look into Columbia. I think you'd be a competitive applicant there, and that you might also want to research other programs with strong entrepreneurship programs including USC, Darden, and Wharton.
