Hi there!
Here is a good listing of executive MBA programs: https://poetsandquantsforexecs.com/2014/ ... rograms/3/

As far as the GMAT, it's a bit less important for executive programs than full-time programs. A high score can help you, but you may not need to stress about getting a 700+ score. I think you'll find the average GMAT scores are in the mid to high 600s. That's because work experience, leadership, and your recommendations become much more important for executive programs. Take a look at each school's profile too -- I believe some may have a requirement or suggestion for years worked, and you may be just slightly below that. Most I've seen are designed for individuals with 8+ years of experience. You could also look at full-time accelerated MBA programs...for instance, Cornell, Kellogg, Emory, USC, and Notre Dame in the US all have one-year options that area designed for mid-career individuals.

Good luck!
