Sidharthadua,

The better finance programs will want to see a higher verbal score. My first suggestion to you is to work to improve your English, retake either the GRE or the GMAT, and then apply. While finance program put more emphasis on quant skills than the verbal, the schools will be very concerned about your ability to simply handle the course work given your verbal score.

Best,
Linda
