Mr. Aspiring PE – Thanks for sharing your profile. Susan Cera here from Stratus.
I’m impressed that you are starting to look for feedback so far in advance of applying. In terms of work experience, I think you are likely in a good place. You would be well served to retake your GRE to get above 320.

Getting into PE directly out of business school is tough to do without already having IB or PE experience. I would suggest that you take some time to research career paths to PE to make sure what you set forth in your goals is acheivable.
If you value action based learning, I encourage you to take a look at UCLA Anderson.
Wishing you all the best.
