Should I retake--710(Q 51,V 33) AWA 4?

Hi,
As you can see my verbal and AWA scores are pretty low. I do sincerely believe my verbal skills are much better than what the scores reflect. Regarding my score I have a few queries:
How will my low verbal and AWA Scores impact my applications to the some of the top 10-25 US b-schools?
Can I offset this by good TOFEL score or good interview (as my communication skills are strong)?
If I take GMAT again and get more or less similar score but with a higher Verbal Score-How would the schools view this?
Will my high Quant score give me any distinct advantage?

My background:
Indian Male, Mechanical Engineer
Work Ex: 3.5 Years working for a large IT Company as Design Engineer in Engineering Services Department (Mechanical design). My job involves designing components of Turbo-Machine.
International Work Ex- I worked 6 months in Switzerland at client site.
I recently got promoted as well.
I have been involved in CSR activities and event management within my company.

What do make of my profile and would you advise me to take GMAT again?

Thanks in advance.

Normally, I would say that you shouldn't worry too much about the 4.0 AWA score, but the low verbal score combined with the low AWA score could raise a red flag. Do you think you can earn a higher score? If so, it might be best to retake the exam, especially if you are an international student. How did you do on the TOEFL?
