Oops! Sorry for replying so late. :?
As you have plans of joining your family business post MBA, I would look for special MBA programs rather than traditional ones.

Columbia's Acceleration MBA or even Kellogg has one similar programs (sorry I forgot the name but you can get it from website)
they are compressed programs where you don't have to deal with ^recruitment pressure^.

Or other option is look for full time MBA programs with Entreprenuership as speciality/concentration.
eg. Babson college.

Hi mani234,

I agree that an accelerated program is a good option for you, since you will not need an internship. I would suggest looking in Canada and Europe - schools like Oxford and HEC offer shorter MBAs and are also affordable.

I would try to improve your GMAT and make sure you have some extracurricular involvement to strengthen your overall profile if you are considering Columbia and Kellogg.

Good luck!
