Kind of a specific question. Thanks ahead of time 🐠 friends. I was planning on doing a larger app cycle next year for admission 2022, but decided to apply to CBS ED this year for admit 2021 since they’re reapplicant friendly. Now reconsidering if I should attempt any other schools this cycle or if that’ll hurt my chances next year. Are there other m7 schools to shoot for? I was thinking about Wharton as well. Current stats in comments for details. Appreciate your thoughts!

Personal / professional interest. Also fits with my project work history. Definitely could change once I’m there.

I think most schools are reapplicant friendly (shows continued interest) but the real kicker is what changed from your first application to the next (e.g. promotion, interesting project, EC)

like

But since you asked about schools - great healthcare programs are Wharton and Fuqua? Big presence

like

Might have an even better profile if you apply next year with 4 years of WE at matriculation. Lots you can do between now and then - job promotions, community involvement, networking, etc. That could make you a strong candidate for Wharton as well.
