Hello, I'm trying to gauge my profile for the MBA race and suggestion on school I should consider.

WE - 9 Years
GMAT - 690
Professional Certification - PMP ( PMI)
Several awards, appreciations at work, few promotions

Planning for 1 year MBA. Would like to know if my profile fits for Cornell Accelerated MBA, also how is the 1 year program?
I aspire to switch to business side of Investment bank, is Corenell good pick for that?

Also, looking for some european school which offers 1 year MBA -
INSEAD, Cambridge,Oxford.

please let me know how my profile fairs out for the above school and if any other school you recommend.

your opinion/advise much appreciated.

Thanks.

Cornell is a great school for your goals. They have an excellent finance program, and lots of interesting opportunities, like the Cayuga Fund, a student managed fund, and a quite advanced virtual trading floor. If you are limiting yourself to one year programs, you aren't gonna have much choice in the US unless you are also considering EMBA programs. Otherwise the schools you mentioned are good ones, but you might want to add a few more to the list. You can look at other schools in the UK like Warwick, Cranfield, Manchester and others.

"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."
