You are spreading yourself very thin. Focus on not more than 5 schools. 10 is a very long list.

Explain your profile a bit more to even comment on your chances.

Good luck!

Hi priyer111,

interviewbay is quite right, those are a LOT of schools.

While your shortlisted (or longlisted? ;P) choices are all good choices, I guess you have to shortlist is even further. Some things that you can think about are what you want to do post-MBA (e.g. consulting, i-banking, to name some typical fields), how much money you're willing to spend, location (urban city such as Chicago or college town such as Bloomington), etc.

I notice that you're also considering MIS programs. What are your post-MBA goals? Can they be achieved with an MIS degree? Have you considered dual-degrees? I know of a few that have an MIS focus such as BU, Indiana U, U Pitt etc.
