I was admitted to m7 with background in big4 advisory. Undergrad was small private regional university with 4.0 gpa. 700 gmat and strong essays will call attention to your application. Have confidence in yourself.
Can't neglect the other important factors like your overall application, your GMAT score, your race (underrepresented vs overrepresented), and your interviews.
You’re fine. The applicants aren’t as competitive as you think. 700 is great.

You will be fine, T15 is doable, M7 is prob a reach but should still apply to a couple, you never know what will happen

I made my statement based on limited data. 3.5 gpa is around average or below average at m7, but average or above fro top15. OPs gmat will play a big factor on what is more achievable. 700 -730, good shot at top 15, 740+ good shot at m7.
As said already, business schools look at overall application. I know of people with audit backgrounds that have gotten into M7. More so if the qualities (and evidence of that in your career) align to what the school looks for (which would be easily available on the schools website).
Work on your extra curricular, I have similar background and going through process currently
Not at all
I know someone who went to Wharton from a mid tier advisory firm, and went to a average state school
3.5 GPA is good, get a good GMAT and you should be in good shape!
