It looks like your verbal score is really low. Can you highlight your verbal/communication skills through other means (i.e. well written applications, high grades in writing courses, evidence of communication skills through work projects)?

I think Queens is going to be tough for you to get into....but you should measure your overall GMAT score against the average scores for your target schools. You probably still have a shot at some of these programs if you're around the average (or above).

Do you think you can do better on the GMAT?
