The fullbright will be impressive and will help you stand out at a place like INSEAD. Your GMAT will be below average, but not by much--it's still a good score, and if you impress them with your English skills in written form and in the essays, you should be able to overcome your verbal GMAT score (typically less important than the quant score anyway). I think you have a shot with a well crafted application and a solid post MBA vision which connects your past to your futue in a believable way.
