Assuming that you are interested in technology entrepreneurship, I'm not sure that an MBA program is the best use of your time and money. It's pretty clear that the two best B-schools to get you ahead in life are HBS and Stanford GSB. The ROI drop off is pretty steep after that, at least outside of Wall Street.

The differentiator is not quality of education, it's brand and network. E.g. see where top VCs get MBAs.

While I agree with your general point and sentiment, the falloff happens a bit later, and I'd widen to include Sloan, Wharton, Tuck, Kellog at least.
And Booth, particularly if you study the right things.
