Hi Jenn. people always have priority list of schools. I’ve read some advices saying that candidates should prepared for their top priority first. Others say save the best for last, keep your no1 target school to last. What do you think?

This is a good question - honestly - try to get your apps in during R1, especially if you have a lower GMAT/GPA. The school needs to know its your number choice. But understand the priority is getting an admit... so apply to your top and a safety in R1 to hedge your bets then a mix in R2.
