And the schools are...
After having thought long and hard, I have finally decided to app to 6 schools in R1 and 3 schools in R2. Bleddy damn tough task, but I am unable to reduce the list any further! Quite a few of these are schools I wanted to app to last yr too, but since I was very late in the game, I couldnt push in their apps in time.
The list stands like this:
R1
---
1. Columbia
2. Cornell
3. Darden
4. Chicago
5. Fuqua
6. Tepper
R2
---
1. Wharton
2. Ross
3. Haas
Over ambitious?
I have chosen these schools for their focus on General Management, Consulting and Entrepreneurship.

overambitious? maybe... its 9 schools!
but again, 6 schools in one round can be done. you have to ask yourself though - do I really want to go to each of this school?

wow, you surely have a lot of energy and enthusiasm to so many schools. i am sure you will get into more that one of them, but as jatwarrior mentioned, do you you really want to go to any of those schools ?

JW, Forrest: Yes, it took me so long to compile the list partly because I was trying to answer the question: "Would I want to go to this school, if offered admission?"
I am not gonna make the same mistake as last yr: Last yr I was not sure the answer to that question was a solid Yes, bt yet I apped to UNC and Rotman. I started thinking about those after getting the admit and then turned them down.
I likes these schools not only for their programs, but also for fit. I agree that not all of them have the same kinda culture either, but in their own unique way, it seems to fit me!

6 schools in R1 is a lot! possible, yes- but you will have to make sure that your essay quality is not compromised. Also, HBS is great for consulting, general management, entrepreneurship. Thought of applying there?
