Hello Stacy,
How you doing?? My name is Raj and I am from India.My profile is as follows:-

Undergrad- BBA Loyola College (University of Madras) Aggregate 67%
Post Grad - PG diploma in financial management (Currently pursuing for the 16th year of education)

GMAT - expecting a 550 (Nov 20th 2007)

Work experience - 14 months by fall 08

Extracurricular activities - Volunteer for CRY India , Secretary for the commerce department in my college

I am preparing my applications for fall 08 to study in the united states. I am very concerned with my chances for admissions.Though I have limited work experience , I am very focussed on what I want and I have mentioned that in the essays.

Can you please give me a list of business schools to which I can apply for a full time MBA program where my chances will be a little high for admissions..?? Your help will be really appreciated...Thank U

Hi Maxx,

What type of work experience do you have?

It's great that you are focused on your goals and have started your essays - have you picked any target schools yet?

A 550 GMAT may be a barrier to the top 30 or so schools in the US, especially with such little work experience. The best thing to do is to conduct a bit of research online to see what schools are out there. Businessweek.com has a great search feature so you can compare schools with the target GMAT score and specialities you are looking for.

Good luck!

Amy
