Hello to everyone! 
I joined the forum because I may have a difficult choice ahead of me soon.
I am applying for Master programs (regular, not MBA) and currently on the top of my list are:
WU Vienna- Strategy, Innovation and Management Control
Mannheim University - Master in Management
University of St. Gallen - Strategy and International Management
I am not accepted yet, but I am confident I have good chances: 760 GMAT, bachelor degree in Business with 2,8/4 GPA, 1 semester exchange and 1 - internship.
Please comment, if you think I am overestimating
St. Gallen is on the top of the FT 2013 rankings and offers a nice option for a CEMS double-degree. Does anyone know how competitive admission to the double degree is?
The biggest drawback is that it's the most expensive of the 3 with around 5200 EUR tuition fees per year and perhaps life in Switzerland is also more expensive than Germany and Austria. I've read estimations that it is around 1000 EUR per month in living costs for a student.
WU Vienna (SIMC) seems to have a more practical orientation, or at least they give this impression, whereas Mannheim University seems to be a more traditional and academic, or at least I get this idea from reading other discussions about it.
For now St. Gallen is on the top of my list (can't decide how to rank Mannheim and WU), but of course, I am interested to hear the opinion of people with more experience (or who have researched better
, or simply see things differently).
I am looking forward to your comments!

It really depends on what you wish to do after graduation. Practical degrees get you ready to hit the ground running on a job and top companies tend to recruit from those schools. If you wish to pursue an academic track you can go theoretical. Also some large consulting firms prefer to hire from the more theoretical finance-focused schools.
