Hey there --- to help guide further input, can you help provide some more specifics around the type of programs you are considering? Geography? Full-time/Part-Time, etc?

Thanks.

Hi,

Congratulations for scoring 760 in GMAT!!

If you are considering US B-schools and small class size then you can consider applying to Berkeley Haas, Tuck, Darden, Yale, Cornell, Tepper, Emory and Kelley. Focusing on your application and starting early is what I suggest you. Visit https://www.general-ed.com/chances-of-bschool to assess your chances for top B-schools. Let me know if you have any questions...

I think the list referenced above makes a ton of sense --- but every school is so different! No reason Duke and Michigan shouldn't be on list as well. I'd extend a watch-out / concern about the undergraduate GPA -- that's going to be a bit of a red flag for most I would believe.

Have you considered taking some additional classes to show commitment/improvement to academics?

Best of luck!

-Brian

I'm with Brian on this one. That's quite a flag in your application. It would be useful to understand what your unconverted percentile was, what you studied, and where you went, but still, all that considered, that's still a low range.

Anything you could do shore that GPA would be helpful. An amazing GMAT (AND CONGRATS!) is a good place to start but with a GPA like that a little more is probably going to be necessary.
