I am gearing up for the application process for BSchool as we speak. Anyone else applying this fall (to attend Fall 2010)?

My list is as follows, in order of preference:

1) Chicago (Booth)
2) Columbia (re-app)
3) NYU
4) Duke
5) Cornell
6) UNC

I got outright rejected from Columbia last year (ouch) with a 710 GMAT, 3.5 GPA and 3 years FT experience at matriculation. In the one year since then I have passed Level 1 of the CFA, head coached and assistant coached a 14-15 and 15 y/o baseball teams, and hopefully will seal a promotion/raise in the next couple months. I think my spread of schools should land me in at least one of them.

If people are interested I will update as things progress. I should get my first round of results in December.
