What are you career goals? I also believe that you should go to school where you want to live/work. The three schools you've listed are so far apart form one another.

When would you hear back from ESSEC and Dublin?

I am working as a Business Consultant. Post MBA I am planning to work with a consulting firm only.
Location wise I am flexible. Language can be a barrier ( as I know English and Hindi only) but I am ready to learn.

I am looking for a promising career post my MBA. Hence targeting the best college which I can get with my low GMAT and 6 yr work experience.

Also I have limited fund hence trying to put it wisely

As per my discussion with Smurfit Business School... they mentioned that they will get back to me within "weeks"
and
Expecting results of ESSEC by Monday....

I would recommend talking to students, career centers and alums (especially in your target industry/firms) from each school. They will give you a much better idea. As you would be an international candidate, talking to an international alum regarding language barriers, work permits, etc.

I have not done any research regarding any of those schools so I can't inform you on any details. Do the legwork and the decision will be clear.

Good luck :)

I wish you went to Smurfit or CBS. Essec nor France are good choices for Consulting.

CBS has the most reputed MBA in the Nordic region & all Consulting companies hire at CBS. Smurfit is the best in Ireland and benefits from the same.
