Hi Guys, i'm quite new with this forum. I have petroleum engineering background and currently working for national oil company as an strategic planner here in Thailand. I do really wanna pursue MBA program in one of the top business school to enhance my skills in business. I have a strong-willed to lead my state-owned company to worldclass standards. Hehe, acytually I might be the first person who have technical background and need to pursue MBA in the company.

Anyway, just a bit confused if this score is good enough for those schools. Should I retake the exam??

Move ahead. Apply for schools. Don't worry about score as long as you have "7" in your score. Also technical background will help in admission. Techno+MBA managers are considered as the best performing graduates in general.

Congrats on your excellent score!

I believe that with that score and awesome stories about your petroleum engineering background (which, by the way, sounds impressive!) you have got big chances of getting into the big daddies!!
