It's going to be a business decision - whoever gives me good funding among Tuck, Haas and Duke will carry the day. I believe all are great programs that take me wherever I want to go post MBA.

Thank you all for the comments.

I took a leap of faith and submitted my application during R2 and I am happy to report that all the schools including Wharton interviewed me. I am now waiting on the admission decisions by the end of this month.

I have had an interesting time in the last couple of days. I submitted applications to 7 schools and so far I have interviewed with 2 of them- Kellogg and Tuck. I received an invite from Ross this past Friday and hope to schedule an interview soon. In the meantime, I continue preparing to retake GMAT.

Thanks Rich!

All the deadlines for these schools are within the first of week of Jan so I will go ahead and submit and work to re-test by end of this month possibly. I saw some of the schools actually said that one can send updated scores after submitting an application.
