I wanted to gain your advice on the schools that I plan to apply to for fall 2009. The schools are Wake Forest, University of Georgia, Winthrop University, UNCC, and Clark Atlanta University. I plan to live in either Charlotte or Atlanta post graduate school. Of note, I currently work as a banker with Bank of America with about 4.5 years of work experience. What is your professional opinion on the schools I have selected?

Dear bburton11,

The schools are solid, regional programs. Some have a better reputation than others, but any of them will be recognized in Charlotte and Atlanta. Wake Forest and Georgia are probably the two with the strongest reputation in the area and outside the south. Which one is the best for you depends on what you want to do post-MBA. You might visit our sticky on school selection for additional insights.

Best of luck,
Lisa

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
