Thanks for your opinion bb.

Waiting to hear from Kurtosis. Anyone else whom you would like to tag. Looks like there is no other thread especially for this pair.

These are some interesting school choices for something trying to go into Tech PM. Did you apply to any other schools? If you're able to get a 3/4 ride at Jones I'd think you'll have a decent chance at Tepper or at least Foster.

Congratulations, Archit, for receiving admits from Rice and Questrom. Since you have mentioned tech, I will opt for a full ride. You will have good chances to interview at most of the big tech companies if your profile is good and they are open to sponsoring your visa. I suggest you apply for the MSDT program too at BU if you have not yet applied for it. If you have any specific questions about BU, I am happy to answer.
