Your GMAT score is strong. Your undergraduate GPA, as you note, isn’t overly strong so you should consider taking some additional classes to bolster your academic record. You have the right attitude for learning and being open to growing your network in b-school. With a little extra effort and focus, you can present as a more well-rounded and confident applicant for many b-schools.
