I would wait to get here first, and then buy. It usually depends on the industry: banking is more formal (they look at the brand of the suit) than consulting (if you wear a suit that's fine if it looks good) which is more formal than regular industry (usually no suits at all). And within an industry it depends on the job, some jobs require more formal wear than others (for example if you are a consultant working with banks than you are expected to wear brand suits or if you are working in the strategy group in the bio-industry you wear a tie etc.)

So I hope this helps; My advice, don't buy anything until you know exactly what you need it for. I bought a suit that has still not exited my closet… a waste of time and money.

I second Danny on the Darden and Chicago issue. They are both wonderful
schools and have an excellent brand name and reputation. If you really
have a hard time deciding, I suggest you go and visit them and see where
you feel better.
The truth is that the fact that the average Israeli happens to mention
"Yale" as a top business school, doesn't give it a competitive advantage
in the executive arena. The MBA is not about a brand name, it's about
the experience and what you do with the experience. For that reason
there is no real difference in which of the top schools you go to. It's
important that you go to a school that you feel comfortable with the
area you live in, the people you learn with and the prof. you learn
from. All the other things really don't matter.
In any case, good luck wherever you decide to go!

I would tend to go with IMA – Israeli MBA Association.
The "top" thing could be problematic down the road – What is "top"?
According to who/which ranking? Why? What happens to a school that drops
from the "top" as defined?…. Many many more could be asked, and some
people could get offended.
