1.Imperial Business School.
2.Crankfield,UK

Well done! Pat yourself first for improving your score by 60 points.

Did you check the average GMAT score in the sites of those universities? You may also post your profile and request suggestions in "Ask an MBA Admissions Consultant" forum or "Apply to Business School" forum. You may get some great thoughts there.

Hi,

Yes I checked the average GMAT score on the college web site and wat i found is that I am standing on the border line as average work experience of people over there is 6-7 years and my score is not so good that by the same work ex factor can be offset....

I am replying to a dead post, but I have the same score.
So could you please tell me whether you got through any of those colleges?
