You COULD have a chance if your work experience is excellent, but a 540 is pretty low, even for Baruch, and you might want to retake if you have the time.

The best way to gauge your chances is to look at the school's average GMAT and 20%-80% range. Per Baruch's Fall 2012 Class Profile on their website (admittedly dated) https://zicklin.baruch.cuny.edu/admissio ... ofile.html, their average GMAT score is 590 with a 20%-80% range of 510-690.

So, assuming these scores have remained constant years later, you do stand a chance with a 530. But I agree with John that you should retake the test to improve your chances.

Good luck,

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
