Very solid. If you think you can improve your GMAT, you have time to do it. It'll help with admissions, might also help with MBB recruiting. cheers, Alex

Make sure your goals are focused, and ace the GMAT. Make sure you apply in round 1, and maybe add 1-2 more US schools from the M7. Cheers, Alex

You are targeting the very best schools, you might want to consider 1-2 more. You'll need to ace the GRE, if you don't have much quant in your background, take a couple of classes and get As. cheers, Alex

If you plan to pursue an MBA, I don't think another masters degree first makes sense. cheers, Alex
