Hi,
I am having a hard time to select a top school which will me gear me well to enter the General/Strategy Management space. At the same time, I would prefer the school to have a strong presence in IT/Tech consulting space - as a fall back option. Am targeting round 2 for this year's admission process. Since not much time is left, I am comfortable with applying to minimum of 2 and a max of 4 schools. The schools I have been looking at: Stanford, Haas, Booth, Darden, MIT Sloan, Wharton, Ross, Duke, Cornell.
Brief about my profile:
I am an engineering graduate, worked over 6+ years now in IT/Software industry in India. I have worked with both service-based & product-based companies. Also started my own company and closed operations nearly after 2 years of operation during the recent global recession. I have mostly worked with start-ups and have seen them grow and even go bust.
Outside work, I have enough instances to write about in my essays which will help me give me a well-rounded approach to my application.
Also, I had taken GMAT in Feb 2007, my score was 700. I believe I can better my score and thinking of taking it again next month. Please advise if you think that I should drop the idea of a re-take.
Thanks,
