Dear adn10,

Generally speaking, you are competitive for schools where your GMAT falls within the mid-50% range, your GPA is close to the average, and the curriculum makes sense for your career goals. You still have a chance at schools where your GMAT average is in the mid-80% range, but the rest of the application will need to be quite strong to mitigate your score. There are many options in the Boston area, so hopefully that will give you some guidelines as you evaluate your profile against the schools' class profiles.

Good luck,
Lisa

"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."
