My Journey towards MBA

I always had a zeal and interest to pursue MBA right from High School. But after High School, I got into a professional degree in India and after that I came to US to pursue a master's degree in computer science, then started working to pay off my loans. But my interest in MBA still continued, I was always thinking about pursuing MBA. Now I am close to making a decision to get into Class of 2009. This is my first post. I have to start planning for GMAT, doing research about schools and essays and recomendation letters and other stuff. I will apply for FALL 2007 to get into class of 2009. Right now I am interested in applying for HBS, stanford, wharton, kellogg , chicago and ISB. Let's see how my interests will evolve in next two years. My goal is to apply for R1 for all these schools and atleast know their decision by end of january in 2007. So I have ample time to plan to move into a school.
