OK, I finally took the GMAT! Ended up with a 700 (42Q/42V) and expecting a 5.5. or 6.0 AWA. SO relieved to be done with that ordeal!
I told myself that, if I scored 700+, I would apply to more competitive programs. As such, I've narrowed my selection down to the following 9 schools:
Uber Elite
Harvard
U. Penn
Elite
Northwestern
Yale
UCLA
Almost Elite
Emory
Georgetown
UT-Austin
USC
Is 9 too much? I don't want to tire my recommenders, and need to make sure I have enough time to make each application great.
Would appreciate any thoughts and help!
Stats
Male, 26 years old at matriculation
American, Caucasian
UG: Top 50 University with 3.27 GPA
EC: Campus leader in several clubs
Studied Abroad in Japan, Fluent in Japanese
WE1: Hotel Manager at Fortune 100 Corporation with 20 direct reports
WE2: Hotel Manager, later Night Manager, at re-opening of world famous luxury hotel with 20 direct reports
WE3: Property Manager, then promoted to Asset Manager, at Japanese Real Estate Firm. Proposed new division, which was executed and I was given responsibility for it. Speak Japanese on daily basis at work.
Goal
Get MBA to pursue career in hotel development. I have strong hospitality leadership background, international experience, and have delved into real estate, so I feel I possess a strong profile.

Have you also looked at Cornell Johnson? Cornell has a strong reputation in the hospitality industry and has a huge network out of school as well.
Beside that, if you can get 680+ on GMAT, i really don't see much of a problem on your list, except for UCLA and Yale, which tend to attract people with high numbers.
