Hi Experts,

My name is Arpit Bhatnagar and my profile is following:

Graduation : NIT Jaipur (Computer Science)
Work Experience : 2.5 years at Deloitte Consulting, Gurgaon as Business Technology Analyst (Technology Consulting)
GMAT : 740
TOEFL : 112
Extra curricular : Some entrepreneurship experience and good projects

Awards & Academics : All India Rank 3589 among 1 million aspirants.
: Best Business Plan at International Innovation contest,JECRC.
: 10th CBSE Board : 87 %
: 12 th CBSE Board : 83%
: Graduation : Deemed university : 7.7 /10

But I am bit tight on budget and can't spend more than 90,000 $ (including living expenses).

As of now I have shortlisted few colleges which I can afford without scholarship:

Oxford : Said Business School
Cambridge : Judge Business School
Insead, France -- I am counting on scholarship if I get lucky
BYU : Marriott Business School
Wiscosin : Madison Business School

Can you please help me with the following:

How good are the schools I have shortlisted and how are my chances?
Any other good schools you can suggest where I can get full/ partial scholarship?

Note: I am willing to compromise on ranking if I get good scholarship.

Thanks for your time and concern.

Cheers
Arpit!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
