Hi guys,
I am a newbie to this forum and i wish i could get some tips.
My brief background info:
I was graduated from Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University with degree in Electrical and Electronics Engg in the year 2007. My G.P.A. is average and i have IT experience of 3 years 4 months in total.
I am planing to quit my job and give my best to GMAT by April 2012 to target a score of 720. I am planing to apply by June 2012 for the full time MBA courses that starts January 2013.
Here are my Questions:
1. What will be the general time period when the applications are closed for the full time MBA courses that starts by January 2013?
2. Are my time lines appropriate? or am i missing something? assuming that we need to apply well in advance of about 6 months to have better chances of admission and financial aid.
Any help on the above is much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

I think you should target programs beginning Mar - Apr 2012.
Here is what I would recommend:
1. Dont quit your job to prepare for the GMAT. You can do that alongside your job. See this link: https://www.gyanone.com/blog/ (the article on preparing for the GMAT with a full time job)
2. Aim to get the GMAT done by about Jun-Jul 2012 (outer limit). Make sure you give adequate time to get the desired score.
3. Apply in programs starting Jul or Aug 2012 (all programs you are targeting will be open then, most in R1). It is critical that you also give enough time to your applications - not doing this might end up wasting the entire effort.
4. Hopefully get through and join your target school in Mar - Apr 2012.
