So here are my stats:
Age 25 - white/male
640 GMAT
3.2 GPA with a double major in Economics and Computer Science
Very good recommendations - no concerns there
3+ years experience as a Business Development Analyst for a lobbying firm
I don't really have any exceptional stories for essays but they should be solid.
The main schools I'm looking at are University of Maryland, Georgetown and George Washington.
I would think I would have a pretty good shot at GW and Georgetown might be a little bit of a stretch but hard to get a gauge at UMD? Thoughts?
Thanks for the input.

stewie13,
I think you are competitive at both Georgetown and Maryland, GWU should be no problem. Your lobbying niche may be one way to make yourself stand out, given its unusualness, especially if it ties into your goals at all. I would not be in the least surprised if you got into all 3, assuming there are no negatives you failed to mention. You need to dig down and find those personal or community stories and "uniqueness factors" that will make your app stand out a bit.
Good luck,

So I have been accepted at both Georgetown and Maryland.
I really like everyone I have met at Maryland and know it is a great school and I would probably be very happy there. However, there is just something about Georgetown that makes it very attractive.
Within the MBA community both Maryland and Georgetown are highly regarded with perhaps Georgetown with a slight edge. However, if you talk to people who don't stay up to date on the latest B-school news every assumes Georgetown is a far superior school.
In the big picture, how important are rankings if the people you are talking to have no idea what they are and just have their pre-conceived notions about a school? Which is of course inevitable during the course of ones career.
