MBA -> IB School List for My Profile

Hey Everyone,


I am trying to narrow down my school list as we approach R2 app deadlines. I am set on IB from the available MBA opportunities. I am aiming for Chicago (opportunity), Texas (family), or some location in the south east (family in GA/FL/NC) in that order, though I will go wherever to get in. Industrials (specifically, aero or defense since that was the sector my startup was in) and Rx are my main interests, though I think energy or FIG would be cool, I just know less about those areas. Rx seems to be tough since I can't find any banks with Rx offices outside of NY/NJ, which sucks because Rx is the most interesting to me. 


About Me:

Straight white male with a disability (US citizen), but it looks like no banks care about that. lol.

Non target for undergrad, though I have a JD from a decent school. 

Successful (non-tech) start up experience. 

720 GMAT, though I plan on retaking to see if I can push it to 730 or 740 before R2 deadlines.

Not a weirdo. I interview well and have an "above average" story for B school with good, refined essays.

I am just trying to get into banking, not banking at Goldman. I would be perfectly happy with MM and moving up the food chain to an EB after gaining experience. 


Feel free to weigh in, or ask any follow up questions!
