Hi -- everything looks good here, as far as I can see, except for that GMAT... but you knew that. Stern's part-time program doesn't post an average GMAT, but while I have seen successful candidates whose GMATs are in the 600s,it's taking quite a risk to apply with a GMAT that is below 600. What is your reason for targeting the part-time program? A lot of times, like any top business school, having deep knowledge of the Stern and strong reasons for choosing that particular program and configuration can add a lot to your overall chances of admission.

Hope this helps,
