Hey Folks, Please reply. Any help will be appreciated !!

Hi, I'm an Indian Student and gave my GRE last week My scores are Quant : 165 Verbal : 159 Total : 324 AWA : Yet to receive TOEFL : Due in 15 days I've worked in the Analytics Industry for more than 30 months now. I'm also SAS certified. GPA is slightly on the lower side (2.7/4) Am planning to apply for courses around MS in Business Analytics or Operations Research . Looking at the following colleges 1. CMU Heinz School Of Business MISM with concentration on BIDA (Business Intelligence & Data Analysis) 2. Columbia MS in Operations Research with concentration on Analytics 3. UIUC MS in Statistics with concentration on Analytics 4. NCSU MS in Analytics I primarily need advice on 4 things : 1. Do I give GRE again to try and get 170 in QUant? 2. What are the other Tier-I colleges I should be aiming at? 3. Given my work experience, will these colleges give more importance to the work ex. compared to my GPA? 4. Do you think I have a fair chance in any of the above colleges? Thanks for the help
