My b-school was always ranked top ten, though not one of the ones you listed. With that said, stop looking at rankings and start looking at what the alums from the school are doing. No idea what your goals are, but if theres a specific company or career route you want, see how many alums are doing exactly that. Does your dream company recruit on campus?
Extracurriculars help but won't ruin your chances. At best its just another check mark they can put on your app. I had zero, didnt hurt me at all. If youre applying to american schools, the GRE/GMAT is important. Followed by work experience (if applicable), grades, essays, rec letters.
admissions spends 15 mins tops on each app, they just want to see if you meet the basic requirements for an interview, which is where you can set yourself apart. Academic interviews are the easiest you will ever go through - no reason to not crush it.
