Hi,
I'm a recent college grad planning to take the GMAT in a month or two. I'm only planning to apply in at least a year, but I'm trying to figure out in advance which 5 schools I should send my GMAT scores to.
This is the first time I am taking the GMAT, so I'm not really sure how I'll do - I'm aiming for 720+. I graduated from a top ivy league and had a GPA of 3.84, working for the next few years at a bulge bracket financial firm.
Prime factors I'm considering for my MBA are overall experience, networking opportunities, opportunities after graduation (not limited to finance, perhaps non-profit as well), rankings and financial aid - rankings seem to vary by source and by year, and financial aid is something I care about as well.
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
*Edit: I'm a non-US citizen - I took the TOEFL for admission to College, should I take it again to apply to Business schools? There would be a gap of at least 6 years.
