I think you have good odds at both schools depending on GMAT. 

I'd say better at LBS given the internships (big factor), as it gives some flexibility for a lower GPA, but still as good of odds as any with LSE!

 

Probably none at LSE because they essentially require a first class (>3.7). You may have a chance with LBS because of your internship.
Curious though, if you are in the U.S. why apply for a master? Are you seeking to move to Europe?

 

Good point - if you are fluent in Spanish have you considered ESADE? They place quite well in Spain (not so much London, at least relative to other programmes).
LBS is more doable for you, LSE is almost a no go because of their requirement.
Did you manage to apply to the LBS R2 deadline or are you going for R3?
