Chances for getting accepted into MiM or MFA at LBS?

My goal is to break into the IBD in London. I already got accepted by WHU and FS in Germany, but am playing with the idea of applying to the MiM or MFA at LBS.

GPA: 3.5

GMAT: 670 (not very competitive, I know)

work experience: 3 months as an accountant + was in the army officer candidate school for one year

I also got an internship position for next year (financial audit at PwC), and was playing with the idea of doing this and then a few more internships, retake the GMAT, and then apply again for next year at LBS.

However, since I got accepted by the WHU and FS, I'm not sure if it would be wise to throw this opportunity away.
