In terms of numbers, I think you'd be competitive for most of these schools! I'd love to see more information about your leadership roles, international exposure, experiential differentiation and goals, but in terms of metrics (GPA, GMAT, years of experience) you're pretty much on the dartboard already.
Two things you might want to consider in your applications, especially if you are doing quick applications in the next couple of months:
1) which schools seem to require extensive research in their essays?
2) which schools ask leadership questions that you do or don't have good answers for?
You may want to narrow your applications down to a few schools that you can really dig in on, since few of the essays will be "recyclable". Ultimately your post-MBA goals should be a guiding factor as well, but your research will help you with that: be sure that the schools you're applying to are a fit with your post-MBA goals, by doing extensive research into the coursework and recruitment patterns of each school. And show that research in your essays.
