Beat The GMAT a GMAT & MBA community

Hello,

I just finished writing the GMAT for a second time and I scored worse than before. I want to apply for the Sept 2012 program, but am hesitant I won't get called for an interview. My desired schools are Columbia, Cornell, NYU, Oxford, or Cambridge. Do you think I have a legit chance???

My goal is to switch out of consulting and get into finance, specifically Institutional Equity Sales. I was truly confident that I would get above 600 the second time around, but it just didn't work out. I am extremely devastated because I'm not sure if I'll be able to get into any of my school choices. I would sincerely appreciate if you could shed some light on the probability of getting into one of my school choices.

Thank you very much for time!
