Colleges who received my score till now:

York Schulich

I selected my target schools on the basis of these 3 factors:
1) Cost to attend MBA
2) Reputation and Ranking
3) Employment post MBA

What are the other schools I should target? What is my chance this year at York Schulich, Texas A & M and BYU? Should i wait for 1 more year so that European colleges mainly in Germany also opens door for me? I am more keen on doing an MBA but should i also apply to MIM from HEC and Erasmus because of the reputation of these programs. What about top 50 colleges in USA and Canada? Can i get scholarship based on merit?

Kindly do the profiling and i look forward to hear from you.

Thanks in Advance
