So in other words, if it were impossible for you to get into any of the schools ranked roughly 1-20 (yes I know rankings vary, but just roll with it) would you still go to school and attend a lower-ranked school?
Hopefully nobody who is planning on going to a lower-ranked school is insulted by this. (There is a good chance I will end up not getting into any top schools, so this is part of the reason I am asking).

No, I wouldn't. I don't think it would be worth the money, time and effort to do so. I don't think it would open any real doors or create the high powered network I would seek.
I see a lot of resumes from people with MBAs from no-name schools, and they are interviewing for positions more junior than my own. They also don't seem to bring anything especially impressive to the table when it comes to analytics, and my firm pays no premium whatsoever to these candidates. Their MBA is an irrelevant blip on their resume - often listed at the bottom, and we don't even consider it a factor when making a decision.
Things may be different elsewhere - maybe its just my firm - so I could be wrong - but from what I've seen, these people have no more leverage, negotiating power, better prospects or salaries than those with no MBA.
Let me jut go ahead and apologize to whoever this offends. Like I said, I may be wrong - this is just been my exposure and experience.
