Hi

I have been following Your posts and i thought may be you can clear my confusion....

I have a very low GPA 44% Scale 100 But according to my university i fall under 75 Percentile . Work experience 5.5 years mainly in consultation...

I am prep for gmat but my average score is around 620...

What i want to know is that i am looking for top 40 US b schools...IF not then i will do a part time mba from my country India.....

Kindly suggest me what to do...what are my chances....

Hope to hear from you, Thanks in advance

With a 44% and a 620 you are gonna have a very tough time of things. The thing is with such a low GPA you are gonna have to have a) a stellar GMAT b) a very very good story as to why you got a 44% to get accepted.
Hope this isn't tooooo disappointing for you, but I thought it better to come straight out and state it, dude. So either retake your GMAT or maybe apply to a PT Indian program.

There might be some lower ranked U.S. MBA school which will accept you. But when evaluating lower ranked schools you need to weigh your anticipated ROI by seeing which employers recruit there. You should talk to the Career Services department of each target school.

Also, take the GMAT multiple times as the schools only look at your highest score. Finally, if you fall in the 75% of your school, you might be able to write an optional essay about the difficulty of your school's grading curve. Chances are the school has previously evaluated applicants with the same educational background.

Good luck,

Hi
thank you for replying, I am trying my level best to strive my scores.....And also i can show that i worked and studied simultaneously , which affected my score little bit.

And to be honest in terms of ROI Its of no use targeting low tier schools.....top 40 is where i wana be in.
Though its difficult

Thanks
