Hi gmat doctor,

Great job on the GMAT. A good TOEFL score is probably very important to balance the low verbal score on the GMAT. You'll also want to make sure your essays are well written.

Wharton also has a great health care major you might want to investigate. I think you're doing the right thing by evaluating potential schools by their programs, and I would encourage you to think about factors such as location, size of class, professors you're interested in, and to gain an understanding of your fit with the school by speaking with current students.

Good luck!
