Almost exclusively looking at Georgia Tech, and I'm wondering about the likelihood of getting accepted, and whether I should retake the GRE for a higher Quant score to appear more competitive.

I think you can likely get into a Masters program with your current profile. Your math grades aren't the best, but they're mostly above threshold, and your GPA is also above the minimum threshold. Your Quantitative GRE score is a bit on the low side for Stat though. If possible, I would recommend retaking it to get a few points higher (163+).
