With your undergraduate score, you will need to have an amazing GRE score, good recommendations and a terrific SoP. I would encourage you to work hard to score 317+ in GRE. IELTS is just a measure of your English proficiency and nothing much. A score of 6.5-7 or above is good enough. You need to work had on other aspects of your application.
