You have a great background that could get you into any top b-school. Your chances of getting in depend on two things: 1) whether adcom has seen another applicant like you, and 2) how well you convey your diversity in essays, etc. Unfortunately, #1 is out of your control and basically unpredictable, so you need to focus on getting your essays as good as possible.

I'll send you a PM with another question.
