Thanks for your profile posting and questions. You are in a tough spot. Given your basically average (or, depending on the school, below average stats) and advanced age and over-represented demographic, you have a bit of an uphill slog applying to the schools you mention. You do not delve into any extracurricular leadership roles or any personal stories, so I also probably am not seeing your full profile.
Nanyang and Carnegie Mellon may be good options for you, but the other schools feel like real reach schools for you. If you are 100% dedicated to business school for next year, I would suggest you add a few safety schools such as Vanderbilt, SMU, or UT. You just do not rise to the level of candidates that I see routinely gaining acceptance at Booth, INSEAD, or Darden.
Good luck,
Jennifer
