Considering your work experience is on the law side, and especially if you're from an over-represented applicant group (from south Asia, for instance), you'll probably want to boost your GMAT score and at least break 700. The average GMAT at MIT is usually 715 or so, at Booth it's more like 720+.

You'll want a high enough GMAT score to help offset your lower than average work experience. Something like Emory might be a safety school.
