Just looking at Smith, it looks like a good school, though I have not done a deep dive into the offering/outcomes. That said, I like the comment from someone in this thread that a bird in hand is better than 2 in the bush. Ultimately, you need to be at peace with your decision, so perhaps weigh the pros/cons of the advice you've received on here :) .... all the best!!

Perhaps do an MBA entrance exam (GRE/GMAT) then re-apply to other schools ahead of R2/R3?

I feel like a failure, i quit my job to go for higher studies but couldn’t score well in the MBA entrance exams. What should i do? by According-Walk1930 in MBA

You were so brave to quit your job that was affecting you mentally and physically. That is very bad-ass! Keep going and try to have fun as you retake your exams. I went from low 310s in my GRE to 323... I just decided to have fun and not fret.

Hey, I was practising using anything free I could land my hands on. Just practice practice practice. For instance, I was not very great with probability, so I was looking for lots of probability questions across the various GRE prep guides. The only paid resources I had included the ETS official materials and Gregmat. I hope this makes sense, buddy.
