It will be difficult to get into a strong program with your current scores. You didn't mention the type of prep work you've been doing. However, you should consider a course or study guide to help you pinpoint your areas of weakness and boost your score. That said, not everyone can achieve a high score on the GMAT. If you find this to be the case, aim for your best score and highlight your strengths when you apply to graduate school. You might also consider looking at programs that accept the GRE. Sometimes people are able to get better scores on the GRE than the GMAT.

"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."
