Can I pick a reach school for R2 or am I out of my mind?

Hi Jon,

I wrote to you last year for a profile evaluation. I applied to Tuck and Fuqua in R1 and EA respectively, and I've been wait listed without interview at Fuqua. I'll hear from Tuck later this month I guess. I've already picked a conservative list of schools for R2, considering my profile. But I really want to add one reach school to the mix, a 'reasonable reach'.
I'm confused between Yale, Booth and Wharton though I'd welcome any school suggestions from you.

My profile, briefly:
********************
Indian female, 25, GMAT 720 (Q49, V40)
4 years work ex split between Indian healthcare IT consulting and German medical device company.
Bioengineering, CGPA 7.99/10, non IIT but well known school internationally
Had a few low grades in the first year but ended college on very high GPA.


Grew up in the Middle East, have some personal stories about overcoming hardship.
Solid extra curriculars in college
Co founded a non profit venture, which failed this year
Mentor to visually challenged women, looking to enter the workforce.

So what do you think? Should I just go ahead and stick to my conservative list, or can I throw one of these in?

Thank you!

Well I can't really tell you which school YOU should apply to. They will all be more or less the same difficulty. some might say that Yale is a bit easier, but if so, then only a bit), so if you are gonna add in one reach school, I would choose the one you want to go to most.

OR actually I would say: Add two schools! Since you are applying anyways, it can't hurt. And given that we are at the beginning of December you should be able to make at least two more.
