If you are looking at applying to schools in the US I would recommend speaking with an MBA application consulting firm (I'm familiar with MBA mission but I'm sure you could find others online). Many offer free services (ie short consultation) that could give you a sense of potential programs.

Thanks Kyle for the reply.

What do you suggest about universities in Europe, is it safe to go to Europe because of the state of the economy there?
Are the universities performing well?

Besides this I am in a dilemma if I should apply now or wait till I have a work experience of around 2-3 yrs.
How much weightage is given to work experience?
Your opinion pls...

Praveen

Sorry, I did not see this reply until now.

Again, I'm not an expert on admissions (seek out a consultant), but I will give you my opinion. The local economy has some impact on where you go to school, but it's not the only consideration. Chances are good that you will get a job far from your MBA, so the key is how well respected your MBA program is. If it only carries respect locally, that may be a problem, but if it's internationally recognized and respected you should be fine.

Regarding work experience, I think it is a big deal for programs and it should be a big deal for you. Your experience in your MBA will be enhanced by the real world work experience you have before entering your MBA program.
