Don't get discouraged by your age. I am 30+ years old. So so background. Got four offers from the M7's.

hehehe, never......

It's pity I only applied 3 of M7.  Not because of lack of confidece.

Which school do you choose to go then? HBS?

no HBS. I think I am really too old for HBS. It's the only one didn't give the interview among the seven.

I applied so many because I really didn't have the confidence at the beginning. None of the people I know with stronger background than mine got into M7. So at the begginning, I planned to to apply 16 schools for the round 1, covering all the so-called top-10. Wasted a lot of money on application and interview traveling.

as long as you have the gut to waste $3000 application fee. I made a budget at $5,000 before I started.

I selected my schools with more considerations of location rather than rankings.  My focus is the New England Area for personal reasons.  I don't wanna go to Mid-West or Weast Coast.  So, I only tried on M3.  So far, none of them has give me the interview invitation.  I'm all in the Jan round with Magic.

I didn't compare my background with other applicants' when I decided which school to apply.   

I applied almost 10 schools.  I agree, it's a waste of money.  Well, time is worthwhile coz I found the essays I prepared for Jan round are much better than those for Dec round.
