Are any of these schools decent Marketing MBA programs

I am looking to switch from retail banking to a position in the Marketing realm post MBA. I graduated during the recession and was unable to find a marketing position so I stuck with banking. Anyway, I'm looking to work in Consulting or working at a Healthcare CPG (or any CPG company. That's always been my dream. I've come up with approximately 20 schools that I'm interested in.

I would highlight Kellogg, Duke and Indiana for marketing. You can certainly get into good CPGs from the others, but those will give you the best shot. Indiana specializes in marketing and places a lot of people at CPGs. Kellogg is the best marketing school in the country and will give you access to the most on-campus opportunities. Duke has a great healthcare program. Outside of Kellogg, most CPG firms focus regionally, i.e. Ross has Kraft, S.C. Johnson, and other midwest-based CPGs on campus, whereas schools like Stern and Johnson will have Northeast-based CPGs like Colgate and Unilever on campus. Kellogg (and Wharton a bit) is the only school that truly transcends that, drawing on-campus marketing recruiters from all over the country.
