Hey there,
And great to hear from you!
Well first of all, to understand where to apply: US/Australia/Europe/Asia, it will be helpful to understand your goals. In general US/European programs are the strongest and will have the most global impact and prestige. And with a 700 many good schools will be in range, esp. as they don't see many Jordanian applicants.

I would love to get more detail about you: Where do you work? What do you do? How quickly have you advanced? Do you have any leadership? What are your great achievements? Do you have notable community service or extra curriculars?

As all this will help define your profile.

But I think offhand, for US schools you can apply to 10-30 ranked schools (if your goals are in Oil and Gas, look at Haas, MCCombs, Rice for sure!)

Other than that, feel free to fill out our form for a free consultation or post more detail here.

"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."
