What is my chance?

Hi everyone,

It would be really helpful if you can evaluate my chance for a Master in Finance or risk management program. I'm currently looking at NYU, Virginia, Duke, Georgetown, Northwestern, Boston University and UC Irvine.

Undergrad: Bachelor of Science in mathematics and Bachelor of Art in economics at Indiana University Bloomington Campus GPA: 3.3/4 GMAT: 680

I dropped out of my first school due to financial struggles and personal issues, and I went to work for three years in a car dealership as a sales manager before deciding to make a comeback in 2015. I am not sure if the admission committee will consider a college dropout, or if they are going to value my recent academic performance (three straight semesters with above 3.8 GPA on 3 and 4-level courses).
