I think top schools do get you better jobs to start off with. Its the experience afterwards that shapes your career. If you already have good experience with good companies then Online MBA would not be as bad. But if you really want to change your route & destination alltogether then go for the best school you can get in.

I think, for those in their mid to late 20s looking for a fast track to top management jobs in big time firms, a major league MBA from a top school is key.

For someone who is doing well in a non-management job and wants to distinguish themselves so that they can reach for management positions, an online MBA will help. Of course, even in this case, I believe the schools reputation makes a difference.

I think the best advice for you with 2 weeks left would be to do the GmatPrep CAT exams from the mba.com website. Do them over and over until you are very comfortable solving the problems that you have gotten wrong. If you have trouble figuring out the real answers utilize this forum, it helped me tremendously. I think you will be able to raise your score enough by to get into your desired school.

Thanks for all your advice.
asharc - do you know how many times i can take the GMATPrep test? I believe on the first install i can take 2 test, do you think i should uninstall and reinstall the software every time i take new set of tests?
I know this may have been discussed here a lot, can someone post the link.

Thanks

You can continue to retake as many times as you want. Obviously, you will get some repeats, but many new questions as well for practice. I personally don't think re-installing makes any difference, just restart the test.
