GMAT Score is good.

College of education is also good but CGPA from yor college have normally been on the higher side.

Work ex though on the lower side is still enough to apply.

EC is excellent.

With the above score, prima facie look suggests that you will make it through. Apply with a strong application, well drafted essays, use your psychology skills though not much.

740! Yeah man, just apply. With all great stuff. And add a school or two that you like to give yourself more options when the moment comes.

Best to ya!

Yes because your GMAT score is strong.

I am assuming based on your WE that your goals are in healthcare so you might wish to add Duke Fuqua as more of a safety school given its strength in healthcare.

Best of luck,
