You can be an admit provided you

1. Do a good self analysis and come up with essays which project you as a fit to the college in terms of leadership skills, intellectual maturity and potentially innovative candidate

2. You show great intent to join the college

3. You choose your college well

4. You choose your recommenders well and get impressive words of theirs.

5. You apply early.

6. You do good amount of brainstorming before projecting yourself

All these points not in order.

Schools will not automatically reject you on the basis of your GMAT. But with a 650 GMAT you would be below average for most 'good' B-schools & hence would need to justify your candidature through other parts of your profile.

Also I assume you are aiming for 1 year MBA programs, NOT Executive MBA programs.

Good Luck!

"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."
