Hi,
Your profile seems solid so far. You will have to demonstrate leadership potentials. Good volunteer experience.
What is your short-term career goal? Based on your career goal, research the schools by talking to current students to better understand which schools best support your learning and growth. Investing time in due diligence is critical. It will help you articulate "why xxx school" more confidently in essays and during interviews. I would recommend try narrowing down the list to 4-5 schools to apply to.
I've been an alumni interviewer for London Business School for the past ten years. The school looks for people who takes the initiative to organize events and activities they're interested in. The experience is very much driven by the students, so you will have to demonstrate that you are someone who will contribute greatly to the school.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested in admissions consulting.
