Welcome to GMAT Club!

You have a solid stats profile for any school really. In terms of chances and opportunities, it won't help for the top 10 to get a higher score or anything like that. The higher score only kicks in if you ware looking for scholarships and that's more predictable in the 10-20 band of schools.

Your work experience sounds super unique and exciting and I think that may be a more likely candidate of making you an attractive applicant and having a school offer a scholarship. One idea could be applying to a variety of schools, meaning not just the M7 but across T15 and then leveraging offers. I have heard people having to leverage multiple school offers to improve their scholarship situation. E.g. first a school would offer 25%. They would have to get a 50% offer from a peer school and up it to 40% for example and then use that 40% offer to go a third school. You have to work for your money and the situation is the same with scholarships. Sometimes it works out but in reality, we usually all have to work for it.

The good news is that most T15 programs have strong feeder programs into consulting and MBB. Obviously there is a small mid-life crisis happening there right now with MBB recruiting but that's expected to be largely gone by the time you are looking for an internship or a job. People can be yoga instructors only for so long (I hope you know the reference as otherwise, it will be super weird). So I would consider applying to some of the strong consulting placement programs such as Kellogg and Booth, Sloan obviously (there are some interesting other possibilities there too), in mid-tier perhaps Tuck and Fuqua as well as Darden on the end of the spectrum. Darden has been very generous with scholarships last few years but this is assuming you have the energy to make so many applications. (There are ways to waive the app fees by the way https://gmatclub.com/forum/list-of-all- ... 67465.html) but don't underestimate the pressure on your recommenders if you are going to apply to 7 or 10 schools. It is hard work for everyone and while there are reusable parts, some are not reusable and the stupid grids in the LOR's can be daunting and the last few LOR's won't be really high quality as they click and breeze through them). Again, it is hard work but applying to a spectrum of schools and larger quantity has benefits - both as data feedback and also as a probabilities game.
