Hello everyone,
I gave my gmat and got 620(Q50,V25). It was my second attempt. Gave it two years back and got 490. Dont want to give it again.
I want to go for MBA. Can anyone please suggest me what are the good universities where i can apply.

My profile-
10th - 78
12th- 78
BE in CS - 74
Got 1.5 yrs of work ex in major IT company. I dont want to be anymore in IT company so already discarded the option of increasing work-ex.

Please suggest me best universities where I can apply on this score.

Hi

Good to see an applicant with a prepared mindset.I will encourage you to have a deep profile diagnostics done. It will help you to identify and extract the most important and persuasive parts - the key areas of competitive value - and consolidate them into presentable application themes.

At 620 and less that 2 years of experience

If we go by the mid 80 percent score with your experience levels following is a list to be considered.

University of Maryland (Smith)
Purdue University (Krannert)
University of Rochester (Simon)
Vanderbilt University (Owen)
Indiana University (Kelley)
Michigan State University (Broad)

I believe apply in 6 at least. Its worth the shot. You can add a few European colleges. I need more information to exact the list. Many people do qualify at your score in Top 30, complete evaluation is the first step.
