happy to get on skype with anyone who wants to do a practice round - think my friend who goes there did a mock interview with his fellow gmatclub applicants and said it really helped with the real thing

I think that once you get past a certain point on the measurables (>700 GMAT, >4 years WE etc.) the measurables become less important and the intangibles (essays, extracurriculars, story) become more important. That's not to say that your intangibles are bad (you got an invite to MIT, after all), just that it's hard to compare to others once you get past a certain point on the measurables.
If you're looking for something in your profile that may have been looked at unfavorably by Wharton, I would point to the compliance work experience. I have heard that Wharton in particular prefers to see front office from those in finance. That being said, I know people that have gone to Wharton from the back office. It's tough to read too much into it.
In your case, your energy is better spent preparing for Sloan!
