DepreciatingPKR hope you are doing well
Your academic records are alright. There's no need to convert to a 4-point grading system if your system doesn't align with it.
Understanding the distribution of your 690 GMAT score into Quantitative and Verbal sections would provide valuable insight. A high Quant score is favorable.
Your career trajectory seems promising at first glance. Shell and Toyota are both feeder brands at INSEAD. Crafting a compelling narrative that positions you as a valuable asset in the context of the company's global business ventures will allow the substantial impact of your work to stand out.
Additionally, your extracurricular involvements exhibit several strong attributes that can bolster your application.
Overall, a strong chance of getting an interview if application is done well.
Best wishes
