Consulting.

I have been looking at schools with strong general management programs.

Those are good programs for general management. Have you looked at Ross? Stanford also has a strong general management focus for year 1.

For consulting, you should apply to Kellogg... That's arguably their biggest strength.

Thanks. Right now I'm applying to

1. Tuck
2. HBS
3. Darden
4. Yale SOM

Tuck was my #3 until I visited and was just absolutely blown away



You should check out some public schools too like hmmm McCombs(no bias I swear). All the top consulting firms recruit there and Austin is badass.

Darden is a public school.

I'm not really interested in living in Texas so McCombs is not on the list.

I will tell you tomorrow afternoon.

My practice test range has been 680-720, hoping for the best.

~700 a decent barometer for entry to top 25 business schools not taking into account work experience + interview?

Not arguing about schools I don't attend - McCombs is a great school, but not on my list.

Yes. The top 12 schools 80% GMAT range is about 680-730, on average.

I didn't say anything about the school, neither did you. You said you didn't want to live in Texas. I just don't know of anyone who would live in NH but not Austin.

Tuck is a strong national brand. McCombs is a strong regional brand.

I don't want to live in Texas, so I am not going to McCombs.

Jeez I get it, I don't care if you want to go to McCombs or not. Just asking WHY you don't want to live in Austin. I'm guessing reading comprehension isn't your best subject on the GMAT.

Dude seriously?

Austin is a great city and I wouldn't mind living there.

Let's take a look at your posts. I can't make sense of what you're saying.

One of the schools on my list is Darden, which is public. And I agree, Austin is a bad arse city.

The Tuck community is one of the major draws to the school. It's a very small class with one of the top alumni networks.

I would live in Austin, I don't want to go to school there. I would also live in Boston, Charlottesville, and New Haven in order to go to school.

Critical reasoning clearly isn't your best subject.

Spoiler alert, Austin is in Texas.

You said you think Austin is awesome and would live there, this make sense, I just never heard of anyone NOT liking Austin. That is all.

I would argue Darden is in the same boat as McCombs. Both are borderline between national and very strong regional. You have picked a strong set of programs.

LSUS requires GMAT for everyone below a 3.0 undergrad GPA and/or less than 10 years of verifiable work experience.
