You should be competitive for Kellogg and Booth. You can get into Georgetown, Texas, Illinois and Iowa with ease. What are your post-MBA plans ? I might be able to recommend some schools to ya.

Ideally, I would like to get in to Consulting. I know that Kellogg and Booth are two of the best for that track. Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've been consulting for about 4 years now, want to get out of it, hence business school is my bailout plan :). The happiest hunting grounds for Management consulting firms Mckinsey, BCG, Bain and the like include : Harvard, Kellogg, Dartmouth, U Mich and more recently Duke. Wharton and Chicago are just a rung below, in terms of percentage of students that end up in consulting; opinions may vary, but Mckinsey adores HBS and Dartmouth grads.
I would recommend you not to apply to more than 4-5 schools tops, reach and safety schools inclusive.

Good luck with your applications !
