Shot at top 10?

Recently been thinking about going back for an MBA. but not sure if I have a shot at a top MBA program. Currently an IB associate at a bulge bracket in New York with 5 years of experience. Analyst promote and did my early years at an ibank outside the US. Had crappy grades in undergrad from a non-target school and only got into banking by networking my ass off. Assuming my GMAT etc are solid, do I have a shot at a top 10 program? Or are there too many kids with my profile, plus PE, plus ivy undergrads that will be chosen over me.
