Dear AK:

I would encourage you to visit the sticky on school selection for tips on evaluating these programs. You should also research the class profile of each program to determine what might be a weakness for you (i.e., is your GMAT/work experience/GPA below the average?). There are a few one-year programs in the US but they are generally for people with an undergraduate degree in business. The best time to apply to any MBA program is in the first two application rounds.

Good luck,
Lisa

Thanks Lisa for the comments.

I am a bit confused at the moment as I hear that 670 is a low GMAT score and with this score, it would require a real good profile to get into a good college.

With the above mentioned profile, I wanted to seek your advise if it is overall competent enough to move ahead and aim for some of the top 30 colleges.


Thanks again
AK

Dear AK:

670 is actually a good score. However, it might be below the average for many top 30 schools you are looking at as possible programs. As stated in my previous response, you need to research the programs you are considering and evaluate how your profile measures against the class profile to determine your chances of admission and whether you need to find other programs where your profile is a closer match.

Best wishes,
Lisa
