Hi nadiegedestang,

Thanks for writing and sharing your list. It will definitely be a busy fall if you apply to all of those schools! You don't mention your post-MBA goals so I can only give my judgment on the background facts you provide.

I think Northwestern will be a far reach, and Carnegie and UT-Austin would be more reasonable reaches. I think you should likely be in the competitive mix at Georgia Tech, SMU and Texas A&M.

Best of luck,
