Hey there,
Thanks for dropping by!
Even though there are more famous "marketing" schools, actually marketing is well covered in every Bschool program. Right now your school list looks a wee bit on the challenging side, and I'd look into adding a few more tier 2 schools like Broad, Marriot, Tippie, Jones.

Hope this helps!
