I think your profile would be strong for all of those schools. To help narrow your choices, where do you want to be based after school? Is your goal to go into sales and trading on Wall St? Then definitely target Columbia or even NYU. You probably will need to think through and have an explanation ready for why a MFE after you already have a MBA.
