Carol,

You are definitely not too old, especially for a European program. Don't worry about age. You seem to have a distinct profile; this will help you. At a U.S. school your lack of community involvement would be a negative; this is less the case at European schools. The more leadership and impact stories you have the better. They will count for a lot with INSEAD, as will your 5 languages. You will want to tell them about any fast-track aspects to your career as well. If you get a 700 or higher (80th percentile in both quant and verbal) that will be good enough.

Hope this helps,
