I'm in the same situation as you in school choices. I'm in the process of apps for my mba in philadelphia, with a 3.1gpa 660gmat.

I live in Philadelphia, and there is just soo much information put out there for the two schools.

You read one place Drexel is #10 and Villanova is #11 in part-time mbas,
then you see a billboard that st. joe's is no. #1 in philadelphia region, and your'e like huh? Then looking at average GMAT scores and the list from highest to lowest is Temple, Drexel, Villanova, St. Joe's, depending on where you look though.

Personally I am picking Villanova over Temple at this point in time. Due to the atmosphere I want to be in. Although I live in the city I don't mind driving out there.

Hope this helps, or perhaps it confuses you even more.
