Help Evaluate my profile

Hello all!

I need to leverage the admission experts to get an idea of what schools i should apply to (strike zone and reach schools). Here is my profile:

Undergrad: Middle tier UC (Just below UCLA and UCB)
Undergrad Major: Managerial Economics (switched from Chem Eng half way through, stayed an extra two quarters)
GPA: cumulative = 3.2, major = 3.85 (major is upper div in managerial economics)
Study Abroad: London School of Economics (2 classes - 4.0 GPA)
Extra curic: Finance Club Exec, Internships, Student Government, Fraternity

Post College
2 years at institutional investment consultant with 1 promotion (well known shop in industry)
Started an analyst forum at the at the firm (basically a forum for analysts to participate in mind share and speak publicly)
Completed CFA program
Approaching 1 year in lower to middle market private equity firm as investment analyst (models, bottles, well mainly models, some operations exp)
Volunteering: i have some volunteer stuff, but nothing to tell a great story about
GMAT: in progress, i am shooting for a ~720 score

With the above profile i would love to know what you think. I am also a white male who was born and raised in one of the poorest cities in Central California, i.e. had no help, all public schooling, etc.

thanks!
