Thanks for sharing your profile. You have a solid profile that should be competitive at the listed schools. Now your GMAT is a bit low for some of the schools so an improved GMAT would do you lots of good here, so if you have the time and think you can improve then I would go for it. I would aim for ~700 to maximize your competitiveness for these school
