Hi,
I need some help with the list of schools I have shortlisted. I want to trim down the number from 15 to 10. My preference is one year MBA but I am also open for 21 months MBA if the school is really good one.

Dear sumant1808,
You have a chance at any of these schools, but the ultimate decision depends on your overall application relative to the applicant pool at each school. I would suggest you determine criteria for what you want from your MBA experience and then prioritize that list. From there, compare each of these schools to that list to rank them. Then you can cut off the bottom of the list. However, you do want to have a good mix of reach, reasonable and safety programs, so keep that in mind as you make your cuts.
Good luck,
Lisa
