You need to convince them that you're academically capable to handle the b-school's courseload and material. With a low GMAT and a low GPA, they will be concerned. To mitigate that concern (if you're not going to retake the GMAT) is to address it briefly in the optional essay, but more importantly to SHOW them that you're academically capable by taking extension courses or night classes at a local community college in some quant course such as calculus, stats, accounting, algebra, finance, etc. and to ace those courses.

Of course you can remind them, but they will see it in the transcript anyhow.
Regardless, you should still try to do some courses before enrolling -- you need to reassure them that you can handle the academics in b-school -- and actions (i.e. enrolling in courses and doing well in them) speak far louder than words.
