Your work background and demographic are over represented so you'll need something out to have a chance (750+ GMAT, interesting ECs, great story, rock star recs) at standing out at top 5.

Would think good shot at top 10ish with an ok but lesser chance at top 5.. better gmat or good extras/story will help

Also, how much support does Accenture lend to applicants?

Definitely a possibility, I would try to push the GMAT a little higher though. Average GMAT at HSW is now 730

What would be classified as top 5? I think everyone has different take on this

Kellogg is ranked above Sloan....

Tuck or Yale will likely take you.

You get you get paid at a higher accelerated rate after an MBA . Most firms have an MBA track salary

I’ve been offered a position that I’m really excited about. Their initial offer was 10K more than the top of the salary range they gave me for the position when I asked during the interview process and at the top end of the salary requirements I set for myself. My partner thinks I should still negotiate for more even though I’m happy with the offer. Am I an idiot if I don’t negotiate in this case? Realistically, I don’t think I’d get much more than that, but should I negotiate out of principle?
