Hi Paul,
I have 8 years of diverse media experience - publishing, digital and television. Have also been a casting director/judge on a hit MTV reality show. (While on the job, i was a 'slightly' less nasty version of Simon Cowell.)
30 yrs, am an engineer (by qualification, 3.1 GPA) turned writer turned producer turned marketing manager.
Plenty of cross functional leadership experience.
Long standing -- soccer player, volunteer with 2 community based organizations & a mentoring experience with the church youth group.
My clear objective - was media and is media.
My top choices were - 1. Stern – EMT specialization is a perfect fit. 2. Anderson (media specialization).
And Tuck was the dream Ivey league school. Till the d*#n 600 GMAT score happened. No time to retake now.
Irrespective of the GMAT score, I sent in the Stern R2 application. Looked substantial and creative (according to me and some friends). But took so much time amidst the crazy scene at work, that i missed the R3 deadlines of the rest.
Request your help:
1. Need to look at other schools besides the super league Stern to spread my chances. Plan to send in Kelley next before the R2 deadline.
Which other schools would you recommend - a mix of 'near elite schools' and ones above it?
2. Any schools based in NYC/LA (wherever the media is close-by to network)?
3. I’m also interested in a general Mgmt. or marketing specialization.
4. As an international applicant does crossing the Jan deadline and going into R3 make any sense?
Tx for reading. God bless.

ashock,
Some programs require international applicants to apply by January, so you will have to evaluate this on a case-by-case basis. If you don't need financial support from the school, then this deadline requirement may not be as important. You do look "substantial and creative" but the GMAT places near the bottom of top 20 schools' typical GMAT ranges for admitted students. Not sure if your obvious strengths and unusualness will be enough to overcome this negative. In terms of NYC or LA schools where you have a chance you could consider USC, UC Irvine, and Baruch/Zicklin. In terms of Marketing programs, you might have a shot at Wisconsin, Indiana, Illinois, or Ohio State; for Management, maybe Illinois and Indiana again, and perhaps also Texas A&M and Minnesota Carlson. Your best bet may be applying to the part-time programs of the NYC/LA schools, where the bar is generally lower.
Good luck,

Tx so much Paul.
Had some friends who said their batchmates had a slightly rough time finding marketing jobs after Zicklin. But I guess the location is very compelling for networking.
Really appreciate your views and your service to mankind. May your book go into 17 reprints and may your life be truly blessed.

and insight about Zicklin. It's not a great program but it offers big benefits because of its location....
