@jonny1986 there's definitely some good stuff here but I'm going to ask some questions to make sure we're not leaving anything on the table. I'm guessing by your screen name that you're 30? What about your goals and reason for MBA? Any interesting hobbies? Anything you especially unique about you background? It sounds like you have some good team work experience with leading cross-functional projects, any people management experience? And last of all any international exposure? Would you be at all receptive to European schools? You're not completely over the hill but a little older than the usual HBS and GSB admits. You seem pretty Quant oriented I'm wondering why Columbia and Booth are not on this list. Will stay tuned, excited to hear the next chapter

Hi Jonny,
You have a lot of things going for you, from the looks of it. I'm assuming you are going to ace your GMAT as well.
Whether these schools are a fit for you or not depends on the rest of your story - leadership/personal experiences, etc. And more importantly - your goals.
Based on these, and the outcome of your GMAT - these schools could be doable. Have a few safe options as well. Ping us through the link below, if you want to chat more.
Regards,
Karthik
