I will be applying to business school for Fall 14, and have been evaluating part time programs for fit with my goals. I am looking to get into the best school I can, with a focus on FT brand and alumni network. My employer is subsidizing the costs, so I am not concerned about price, and I work remotely so location is also not a problem. I am not a career switcher, nor am I looking for external opportunities, so recruitment options are not an interest. I am primarily looking for a deeper understanding of business theory combined with practical application to allow me to better tackle business problems as I move up within my company. I'm looking to focus on strategy, so finding a program with a collaborative focus on strategy would be ideal.
I am currently employed by a Fortune 50 Tech company, and began work here 1 year before I graduated from my Bachelors program in 2010. This will mean ~4 years of work experience at matriculation, and I have been promoted several times in this span, which is extremely uncommon. I have worked in a number of roles, driving products to market collaboratively on a global scale. I have also had coverage in Bloomberg, Wall Street Journal, and other top publications covering the products I have developed. I hold 1 patent from this time, and have directly owned several accounts with major OEM providers. Currently I hold a position as a Product Manager, and I hope to continue in this facility bolstering my decision making with the experiences I gain from my MBA.
My undergraduate education was at a State school, and I earned a BSc in Business and Information System Management. My GPA is not ideal, a 3.06 overall. My senior year I was working 70-80 hour days with 27 units (12 was considered full-time) as I was working on a start-up type software product. This yielded a 2.5 and 2.9 GPA for my last two semesters, at the same time as my patent was filed and I received recognition for my work efforts. I'm looking to address this with my GMAT, but not directly call out my GPA as it's not below 3.0 cumulatively.
I am currently studying for the GMAT, with practice tests yielding 620 before I started my Veritas test prep course. I scored Q35/V40 without studying, and am hoping to pull this up to 700+ range. I hadn't done any math for quite a while, so I'm confident I can raise this in the 2 months I will be studying.
I am looking at a number of schools, but have had difficulty finding class profile information on Part-Time programs. I still am not completely comfortable assessing which are in range based on my statistics:
Ideal:
Northwestern Kellogg Accelerated Part-Time (this is my #1 and I meet the requirements for the accelerated program)
Chicago Booth Part-Time
Berkeley Part-Time
Very Good:
NYU Stern Part-Time
Michigan Ross Part-Time
UCLA Anderson
Safety:
Carnegie Mellon
USC
ASU
UC Davis
Based on my profile, should I be considering my Ideal schools? If I score a 650 vs 720 on the GMAT, how much will this impact my chances?

Your GMAT should fit in and PT programs are usually easier to get into since they are geographically limited. I am taking it, you are working remotely, is that correct?
