Ask Veritas Prep Admissions Consulting

Hi,
I graduated with an engineering degree in Information Tech in 2006.

I have about 5+ years experience in Market Research and am currently a team lead at a Market Research firm. Over the years I have had several roles but my primary responsibilities have revolved around data analysis, project management, business development and internal practice building efforts.

I have a score of 600 in GMAT and I will not be able to take the exam again.

In this regard I have 2 questions

1. Where can I get information on schools that are known for their MBA Marketing Programs?
2. Which schools look like a good fit based on my general profile mentioned above

Thanks in advance for your response.

The rankings boards generally rank schools by discipline, so if you look under marketing, you should be able to see the list of top marketing schools. With a 600 GMAT, you are in the position of having a good score, one that should get you into b-school, but not one that will help you stand out from the GMAT perspective for the top schools. You should certainly try to get into as good a school as you can, and may be able to get some attention from schools who are good, but perhaps not as much in the spotlight as say, the top 15. I would look at top 10 public b-schools for some hidden gems as well as the top 15-25 overall.

Thanks Bryant. Let me get some more research done and I'll get back to you with additional questions.

Thanks and have a happy holiday!
