________________________________________________________________
My goal is to come back to India after graduation and expand my family business and help diversify in the education field itself.. I want to increase it's reach using platforms such as video conferencing, e-learning etc
I am interested in pursuing an MBA in General Management / Entrepreneurship
Given that I am younger than most applicants, which schools are reasonable for my profile? I know that I am younger than most applicants but due to certain reasons, I wish to apply this year itself. Can I consider schools such as Mccombs,Goizueta and Marshall as target schools? or are these a stretch for me?
Additionally, what range of schools can I consider as safe schools?
Thanks for all the help.......
