Could you please help me out.
I'm 28 yo eastern european female with 6 y of we (econimic journalism and then commercial banking) and 760 GMAT. My extracurricular activities are sports (I was national champion and participated in World championship) and a bit of charity (gathered closes for poor if it is worth mentioning).
I was thinking of full time in top european schools (insead, lbs) and didn't want to go to US b'school on family reasons.
Please advise whether it is worth looking at part time programs (not exec) such as Duke cross continent or chicago? They have a schedule that suites me, but I wander whether they would fit in my carreer plans.
Upon graduation I'd like to change my role a bit and may be switch from commercial to investment banking. I would also like to have the opportunity to find a job in UK or US for several years before returning to my country.

Yanka,
If your goal is to use the MBA to make a career switch then a full-time program would be your best bet for U.S. jobs, because you could use the summer internship to get experience in your new field and line up your post-MBA employer. Given your GMAT score, gender, region of origin, journalism background, and interesting extracurriculars (national champion), you should be able to aim high. INSEAD, LBS, Chicago, and Duke would all be doable for you. You have a strong profile from what I can tell.
Good luck,
