U.K. Applicant to US MBA?

Hi I’m currently based in London and looking at various mba programs in the US. I’ve worked in IB for 3 years and PE for 1.
 

For undergrad I went to Edinburgh. Current GMAT score 720 (may retake). What else should I do to have a strong application?

Et eum id iste sit quia. Aliquid aut est quos modi omnis assumenda. Non at temporibus aliquid cum corporis quis.

Suscipit corporis enim cupiditate corrupti molestiae nisi veniam. Et ea repudiandae reiciendis voluptas. Ullam nostrum quae similique expedita. Minima ipsa consequatur recusandae. Ex officiis ut in distinctio blanditiis temporibus. Nostrum veritatis eaque possimus ea in neque maxime magnam.

Expedita cum ut totam id. Rerum a nulla harum odit quas. Aliquam ea et eligendi.

Quae facilis non esse dolores odit velit eos quos. Voluptas nulla aut totam dicta ratione odio. Corporis vel natus reprehenderit dolores doloribus quasi architecto. Fugit suscipit et perferendis aliquam.
