GMAT Score Feedback

What is the minimum score that I should be attempting if I'm planning to apply to NYU, Georgetown, UT, Babson and INSEAD? I got a crappy 1st score of 450, but I think with more preparation I could crack a 650 - 680.

Dear costarica,

A GMAT score of 650 or higher will certainly get you in range for the schools you noted. A 650 is a more competitive score for some schools versus others. Generally speaking, you want your GMAT score to be within the mid-50% range for your schools. You can find that statistic on school websites and/or in some of the tables for the various rankings.

Good luck,
Lisa
