Congrats on your career progression and 99th percentile on Gate. That's something bschools hopefully familiar with. If you are thinking about VC, Stanford and Haas can be added as well as Wharton. However, one aspect (if you are planning to apply as a VC target), is to explain and paint a clear picture why that transition will work and why you would be successful. Having a Kellogg or HBS or Sloan degree is not enough by itself. How does your background, what you are doing today or planning to do will make you more successful than an average person - that's the bar to pass.
