- GMAT Score:750
Hello everybody,
I am a student from Germany currently finishing my Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. I am attending the second best B-school in Germany and in the top 15%, maybe top 10% of my class. Unfortunately here in Germany we do not have a grading scale that translates to GPA, so I cant really give you any more information than that.
I am taking the GMAT next week and have been scoring between 740 and 770 on various tests during my preparation (the official GMAC Cats, as well as MGMAT tests) So my expectations are that I will do quite well on the real deal. Now, as I read that the "best" B-schools have GMAT averages of 730 max, I would assume that my GMAT score will not hinder, but rather help me getting in those schools. However, I do not have years of work experience (I am 22 years old) -- the only things I can come up with are a few internships (2-3 months each) at consultancies and major industrial companies.
I have spent a year in the United States during high school ( I am an ASSIST scholar ) and have also spent half a year in Norway during college (as an ERASMUS scholar). The idea of returning to the US for a masters degree in management sounds very attractive to me, however I do not wanna go if I don't get into a top school. The thing is that here in Europe id have decent chances of getting into the the top schools for management and I think that a top notch european management education beats that of some second tier US school any day.
So I guess what the question comes down to is: Are there any management master (not necessarily MBA) programs of top notch american B-schools that I am be eligible to apply for with just a Bsc. title and no work experience?
Thank you so much for your time !
Cheers,
Sven
