Chances on MBA at M7?

Age: 24, White Male
GMAT: 760 49Q, 44V, 8IR, 6AWA
Edu: CompSci at Mid-Range California UC, 3.32 Cum GPA (Focused on side projects + EBay sponsored senior design project, GPA isn't particularly important in Software Industry)
Work: 2 years Software Engineer at Microsoft, 2 high-quality internships prior
Other: Multiple apps written in iOS Store, Google Play, Windows Phone store
Founder and president of largest Fraternity on Campus, Highest GPA of any social org

Want to pivot career into IB. Was thinking that I might supplement my profile one of two ways: 1) Move into Product Management role at MSFT for 2 years, then apply. OR 2) Work 2 yrs at a top consulting firm (McK, etc) to build narrative behind wanting to go to B-School

Any thoughts / comments are REALLY appreciated.
