If you want to know which colleges you should apply if your score is 500,550,600,610 or any XX0?

If you want to know that whether your score good enough for a particular B school?

Should you retake in your particular case?

Which B school accept less than 600 score?

Which school can be applied with confidence when you have a score between 600 to 650?

I have a imbalance of verbal and quant. Should I reappear?

Ask with your score, GPA, Work Ex, Extra curricular.....
