Also, putting together an app (let alone multiple) with only a month’s time is not an easy task... may be worth waiting a year to really think about it and get everything together. Would also retake the GMAT since you are an ORM

With absolutely no other info other than GMAT, timing (R2 instead R1), and company:

Reach: Booth, MIT, CBS, Kellogg
Targetish: T10-T15

Take advantage that Kellogg and Tuck have open invite.

depending on essays and recs and who you are, I'd put you at a reach to somewhat competitive at M7

Given just a GMAT and 3 yoe at Accenture, you would definitely have a shot at the tier below at Darden, Yale, Dartmouth

but like most people in this bowl, I know nothing and I'm talking out of my ass, you should visit these schools first and talk to a legitimate admissions consultant

Come to Anderson! I chose it over Yale and don’t regret it one bit. The people are awesome here!

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's ALM in Management.

If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
