    The GMAT is your problem. The experience is great and LSE is great, but having low GMAT will sometimes render your application non-viable. That said, if you have connections at USC you might as well use them, but depending on how well you're connected it will depend on whether they'll still be willing to forget your GMAT.

    Out of all things, your TOEFL sticks out as being low. You can't do anything regarding your grades (and your GPA is more than enough, considering it's less important for international students), but you can retake TOEFL and get at least 105. Seriously, do it.

    It's very hard to tell without GRE. Generally, for international students GRE is much more important since much less emphasis is placed on your GPA. It's much harder to judge interational grading so it's usually heavily discounted. Make sure to have a great GRE. Other than that, do everything in your power to publish something. Your international experience is really nice but having a research paper would really make your application "pop". Adcoms simply care about whether you'll have a strong research output. Writing papers is the best thing you can do to prove that.

    I can speak about Management only. The unofficial cutoff (for 99% of schools - I can't speak about Harvard, for example) is 700 GMAT (irrelevant of whether it's strong Quant or Verbal). I would also like to reemphasize that when you pass the cutoff, nobody will look at the score as a determining factor anymore.

    My advisers told me that a campus visit means pretty much a lock unless the professors there really, really dislike you when they meet you.'
