580 Score

by deepakteja1988 » Sun Nov 13, 2011 9:11 pm
Hello,

Please help me in shortlisting colleges for what I can apply irrespective of any location. I am more interested into finance and marketing. And the main purpose of me doing an MBA is to serve my interest in the field and my purpose. ( for a high pay )

GMAT Attempt 1 - 580 (50,20)
GMAT Attempt 2 - 560 (50,17)
GMAT Attempt 3 - 580 (50,20)

The above are my real gmat scores.

Please any consultant, reply back and let me know the details.

Thanks in advance.

Hello deepakteja1988, thanks for your follow up.

Your GMAT scores could potentially be a significant obstacle to gaining admission to top programs.

In targeting suitable schools, a good place to start would be to compile a list of programs that have a mean or median GMAT score close to yours. You should be competitive here. My rule of thumb is that if your GMAT score falls within the middle 80% range at a school, you have a shot. Otherwise, it could be an uphill battle.

Best of luck!
Brian
