Hmmm, as an AdCom, my first challenge to you would be : WHY???
You have perhaps the most Masters I have seen for an applicant to an MBA program (congrats! :) ) and my initial fear is that schools may doubt the necessity of your MBA and classify you as a "degree collector".
To get into most of the schools you mentioned you will have to improve your GMAT score, for sure. So think about that.

I would not suggest applying to Stanford or Booth, perhaps not even Columbia (depending upon your final test score) as I think they are not very realistic given what I am seeing here (And especially with that low undergrad GPA and subsequent multiple Masters).

But really, your most important item is to give a really really good argument as to why you really need this degree!

Well I would certainly agree that the qualitative stuff can make up or even outweigh the quantitative stuff. And great essays can make up for a lower GMAT. But still, like I wrote I think an important matter to address in your application if you are gonna reapply is to have really clear logic regarding your goals and your reasons concerning them.

It's awesome that you got those interview invites and it certainly is encouraging for next year, and that's why it's so important now to take a step back and think: okay, what can I improve????
