1. What Canadian Schools? 2. I know my reccomenders VERY well, and they let me take a read at the LOR and they were very positive. 3. Think-tanks in DC published them. What are the "top schools"? And, if you had to guesstimate at my list, what would your thoughts be? Anymore thoughts? Does anyone know a starting salary in this field? I've read everything from 80K-110K

Profile Age: 24 Undergrad BBA in Economics GPA: 3.77 (Top 7% in Class) Multiple honor societies. College Scholarship Athlete (4 years) Graduate School MA in Economics GPA 3.6 Worked 20 hours a week as Research Assistant. 2 published papers LOR: VERY strong GMAT: 650 (I went from a 540 practice to 650 real. Not sure I could get it much higher.) I was wondering what schools I would be competitive at? I want a PhD in Strategic Management and Public Policy, or Business Management with a focus on strategy, etc. Any new ideas/similar degree plans would be great. I was looking at some programs like: George Washington University Oklahoma University Tulane University Vanderbilt University Thoughts? Thank you, and please be realistic. Do not be afraid to be blunt!
