Well, I would suggest starting to look into schools where your GMAT lies in the 80%, plus into any schools you have dreamed about. Make a BIG list of all schools you MIGHT be interested in. And then you start your research: into location, school life, employment opportunities, etc. Which should hopefully lead you to come up with a "short list". And then, once you have taken your GMAT and have your REAL score, then you need to figure out your strategy.
