terp06,
You have a good, solid profile but this is your bull's eye: "Leadership: I have a great amount of responsibility at my work. It's an entrepeneurial company and I work directly with the CEO/CFO. I am responsible for sizing up and making decisions regarding all of our M&A candidates." With a 700+ GMAT score, this will make you competitive at many of the schools you mentioned. I don't think HBS is realistic (profile is not quite distinctive enough), but one or more of the following schools--Wharton, Chicago, Columbia, Haas, Kellogg, Tuck, and MIT--should come through for you. You will want to give them really strong, well-worked-on applications; they are not money in the bank. You can be more optimistic about Yale, Michigan, UCLA, and Duke IMO.
Hope this helps.
