I am looking to do an MS in Finance in 2009.

I have a BS in chemistry and BSBA in finance. Cumm GPA 3.33 and finance major GPA 3.83 .

I only took the GMAT once and scored a 640. Don't really want to take it again...

I have 8 years work experience in customer service and 2 years as accounting analyst at a major financial corp.

Fluent in English, Spanish and Arabic. Lived in Middle East and Spain.

Schools I want to apply to are Purdue, Villanova, Case Western and Vanderbilt.

Is my GMAT score and the little background I gave you about me good enough for these schools?

Thanks for your input.

Dear tarekhalawa,

I think you are within range for your target schools. If you put together a strong application highlighting your managerial skills and giving a solid rationale for an MS in Finance, then I think you have a good chance of getting into at least one (probably more) of your target schools.

Best of luck,
Lisa
