Don't worry about your age. I have classmates who were older than you when they applied... it's totally doable. You just have to make a case for WHY B-SCHOOL NOW, essentially this late in your career. More importantly, why an MBA from THAT school is critical to you being successful. I think you have sane target schools. If you're not a career & industry switcher I don't necessarily foresee a problem. of course there's no way to tell 100% but your age won't take you out of the game.
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.
