Researching/Visiting Schools
I'm in the process of putting together school visits for the schools I'd like to apply to. So far I have them grouped like this:
1 - Booth (Chicago, IL)
1 - Kellogg (Chicago, IL)
2 - Harvard (Boston, MA)
2 - Tuck (Hanover, NH)
3 - Wharton (Philadelphia, PA)
3 - Columbia (NYC, NY)
3 - Stern (NYC, NY)
4 - Stanford (Stanford, CA)
First off, is this a good idea in terms of groupings? I was planning on spending one day on each school so I didn't want to have to do a ton of driving. I didn't want to take on too much (e.g. the entire NYC/Boston/Philly area) in one trip, either.
Also, I'm going to be looking at events for prospective applicants, try to speak with people from clubs I'm interested in, maybe observe a class and if possible speak with some adcoms and/or former adcoms. Am I missing anything here?
