Thanks for sharing your profile.
Your general background looks competitive to be considered at these highly selective schools. You would need to use the details to craft a compelling application to help you stand out from the pool of applicants. For example, demonstrating character and skills through your work accomplishments, or passion and innovation through your extracurricular activities would be very important. You may use the scheme of encouraging supermarkets to donate food to the homeless to show your ability to influence and collaborate or your creativity to make sure that participants in the program do not incur losses (due to employees preparing too much food, for instance). Same with the tech start-up, showing your ability to bring something unique or ability to look at business trends/market will show more value for your experiences. Leveraging these to create fit with your MBA goals would help boost your chances.
Wish you all the best!
