You should be targeting schools located in the general region where you will be working post-MBA. This will help you leverage that school's network. Most schools on your list (not all) will not have much of a reputation in Asia, but I can see where the cache of an "American MBA" might have broad appeal. I think the higher ranked schools on your list will be a stretch mostly due to your GMAT score and the fact you hail from a very crowded applicant pool, in which you will stand out for sure, but not in a good way, since the average GMAT score in your pool is high. I like that you do consulting and for a marquee name too--that will help since you offer to your classmates who want to do consulting an insiders perspective. I would play this up and try to convince them you have the academic octane to succeed in a top MBA program. Pick 5-10 schools to apply to and focus on these things. Considered retaking the GMAT? if you could add 50+ points, yours would be a more compelling profile. As for school selection, you can definitely get what you are looking for at any or all of these programs.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
