You have a good list. But I would need your SAT scores to give you adivce. There are 5 schools you left out that I recommend strongly:

Penn-Wharton (the best Business School in America)
Cal-Berkeley (top 10 university overall...top 5 Business School)
University of Virginia
University of Texas-Austin

Thanks Alexandre.
Since I didn't take any SAT before I enroll in my community college, I don't plan to take it. but I took a practice exam in 9th grade and got 1170 (really terrible verbal with good math)
Thanks for suggesting those colleges.
I know that Penn and UVA needs SAT
I don't think I will satisfy UCB and Austin's general requirements.
Please help!
Thanks again
