You should be competitive for the schools you mentioned so long as your GMAT is in range (at least above 600, should be around mid-600s, and ideally above 700).

As for other schools you should apply to, I don't know. It depends on what you want to do post-MBA, where you prefer living during b-school, where you prefer working post-MBA, your marital situation (as it can be a joint decision and depends on your spouse's own situation/preferences), and so forth. I'll let you figure that out on your own.

The US top schools that are decent for IB placement and where you probably have some chance of getting in are Cornell and Yale. You may also want to look into CMU and Rochester.
