690/5.0 what are my chances?

Hi,
Done with GMAT on 15th July, was expecting around 720 though. I think verbal brought me down on G-Day. But it was my weak point all along, so cant blame it!

Now i have doubt regarding my chances in B-Schools i am applying, which are NUS, HKUST, NTU, CEIBS , ISB (all APAC)
Current Profile:
3 yrs experience in IT (2 with Product Company, 1 with Services)
Appearing for FRM (Financial Risk Manager) certification in Jun 2010 (long way )
Have done a beginner's course in Mandarin
GPA 3.9/4 (Engg from India)
Decent extra-curriculars

It will be great if somebody can help me evaluate my chances??

Dear theironbull,

I think you are within range for your target schools. Your 690 is close to the average for your target schools and your GPA is above average. Since admissions decisions are based on more than the numbers, your essays, recommendations, and interviews are critical to the ultimate decision. These components give you another chance to shine and make your case for a seat in the class. Be sure to convey your successful leadership and teamwork experiences in your essays as well as a solid rationale for getting your MBA in relation to your past experiences and future career goals.

Best of luck,
Lisa
