Hi
I am applying for the MBA Fall 2014 program and could use some advice/suggestions on which schools to apply to. Ideally I would like to pursue some specialization in either:
1. Operations
2. Marketing
3. Supply Chain
4. Digital Advertising (very few schools had this specialization)
I took a GMAT back in 2010 and scored 670 (40V, 42Q, 5.6 WA).
I graduated with a MS in late 2004 from UMCP. I have 9 yrs Wk Ex and 4 of those last years are as a Product Manager. I also have a prior Consulting experience.
Pursuing a MBA mainly to help get to the next level professionally. My experience so far has been MBAs start mattering if one wants to continue in the Management field (and has moved away from the Tech field completely- I used to be an Engineer!). Another main reason to purse MBA is well cliched to learn the trade better, and expand my profile with new learning/experiences/people in a constructive way.
I am presuming my score is a bit low for the Whartons/Booths/Rosses/Sloans to apply to. But other than, is my list of schools too ambitious? I am mainly aiming the schools in the 10-15 rankings. Any other schools that someone might suggest will be very helpful.
Thanks for your help!
