MBA recommendation letters are one of the most misunderstood parts of the application process. Many applicants focus on choosing the most senior recommender — when what actually matters is specificity, credibility, and examples of impact.

You have a solid profile. Do not overthink your undergrad academics as it is in the past and you have done a good job on the GMAT.
Since you haven't specified your geographical preferences, I'll provide a general perspective. Considering your age and work experience duration, you are a suitable candidate for the top 15 schools in the US. Should you be exploring options in the EU/UK, your age might be slightly below the average applicant's. However, individuals with prior consulting or strategy experience are regarded as professionally more seasoned, and their slightly shorter work experience is not a significant concern for the admissions committee as long as they showcase a solid work portfolio. Consider exploring institutions like HEC Paris, IESE and IE. Even INSEAD, even if you wish to explore. You do not come from an ultra-competitive demographic so why not! My INSEAD class did include some 24–25-year-olds, although the average age hovered around 30 years. Most of those came with a consulting background.
