Hello,
I would appreciate a profile evaluation. I am applying to Wharton, Kellogg, Michigan and Stern. Should I also apply to two "safety" schools? Which schools would fall in that category given my profile?
I am planning to specialize in Strategy and Marketing, and return to the industry as a Technology Strategy Manager.
Sorry for the long post.

Academics:
1. UC Berkeley Extension - International Business Management, took two course so far and received an A in both.
2. UT Austin - B.S in Computer Science with overall GPA of 3.94.
