Hi and thanks for your note. As I explain in a sticky post in this forum (the one that says, "Please do not ask this question") I don't really recommend specific schools.

What I can do is help you think through whether the programs that you are applying to are really the right programs for you; and, based on your profile, I think the programs that you mention sound like reasonable fits.

One thing to think about when applying to schools out of the top ten or so, especially if you want to go into entrepeneurship, is the financial angle. An MBA can be very very expensive and servicing that debt can be difficult if you are not making money at a start-up.

So...my suggestions would be as follows:

- Go through my post on Criteria for Choosing a Business School

- Think about costs and cash flow after your degree

- Keep me in the loop about your thinking.

Keep me in the loop about your thinking and let me know if you have any more questions.

"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."
