WOW you have a strong profile. What you need to do is differentiate yourself and remember that high GMAT is NOT the only thing which they take into account. As for BSchools, have you considered MIT or Berkley? They also might be a good fit for you. Stanford is too selective and picky, but the ones I mention should fit you well.

In any case I am positive you are getting into a top 10 school mate!!!
