Profile review for deferred admission

Hi, I'm a 3rd year student thinking about applying to some MBA deferred programs for 2028 entry. Would like someone to review my profile to see what is realistic.

School/Degree: UK Top Target (non-oxbridge) STEM

GPA: 1st Class Honours (Barely, trying to get it up) ~3.6/4.0?

Pre-MBA career: MBB summer in local office, likely continue in MBB

Post-MBA goals: Will return to MBB assuming they sponsor, if not would like to try strategy/operations at a start-up

GMAT: No idea, but took the SAT in the 10th grade and got 1540 so hoping for 720+ in GMAT

Looking at all M7 + Insead/LBS but would like to study more in the US as I have never lived there before. Dream is GSB but not sure its realistic considering my profile.

Edit:

Demographics: White & East Asian, Male
