Satima,
A few comments:
Regarding #7, why would you apply to your safeties R1 and your reach schools R2? I always recommend the opposite. Apply R1 to the schools you want to go to the most when the class is emptiest. If you aren't accepted, apply R2 to safeties or programs where you are simply more competitive. If you are accepted R1, you don't need to apply R2.
Regarding #8, you need to narrow your goal before you apply. Your options basically mean you don't really know what you want to do. Many programs, especially the shorter ones, want to see more focus.
Assuming a 700 or higher, fairly balanced GMAT score, you are competitive at all your target schools and are applying appropriately. For that last school, consider LBS, NYU Stern, and Yale.
If you would like help with your MBA application, please let me know.
Best,
Linda

Hi Linda,
Many thanks indeed for your comments and suggestions.
#7 - You are absolutely right. This is indeed the strategy that one needs to pursue. I was considering to practice and to experiment with my safeties in R1 and then applying to my reach schools in R2 with the experience gained in R1. But it is clear that my method is not the most efficient one to say the least.
#8 - You are spot on. This answer cannot be presented to b-schools as it currently is. There will be some decision making involved at a later stage and I hope that I can make my mind by then.
Once again, many thanks for your evaluation and comments, which are greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
satima
