Dear Neha,

Your profile is incomplete, so it is hard to comment at this point. If you want to go to business school in the US or EU, then you do want to aim for a high GMAT score since you will be applying as an international applicant. Your GPA is strong and you have interesting work experience, not as common in the global MBA applicant pool, so those are positives in your profile. You do not appear to have many extracurricular activities since college, so that is an area to work on in addition to your GMAT preparation. As for schools, I encourage you to read our sticky on school selection for tips on identifying programs. Most one year options will be in the EU or Asia-Pacific region, not the US, so you might start your search there.

Good luck,
Lisa
