Age won't hurt you.
(1) Network to get interviews - it's a big misconception that MBB only takes high-GPA candidates - just like with I-banking, you'll find that some of the people get in through connections or aggressive networking (and strong, but not extremely impressive academics).
(2) Practice case studies - most of my friends in college who landed MBB jobs bought multiple casebooks and went through each a few times. You have to be extremely fluent and comfortable with going through a case.
(3) Your GMAT score could be better, but I'd focus on (1) and (2) above. Retake if you have time.
