INSEAD will be a stretch. Your age/work experience and GMAT score, all coming from a competitive demographic, will make it difficult for INSEAD - one of the most selective MBA programs in Europe.

That's not to say you won't be a candidate or given an interview, but you should consider taking an additional year to build up your profile so you have a better shot. You can always reapply but it's not the easiest pathway especially if the plan is to reapply the next year. How do you demonstrate considerable change?

You are early in your career, so postponing a year could be very advantageous in many ways. Good luck with whatever you decide to do!
