Hey everybody,

I need some advice on the situation that I am currently on. I'll discuss my profile first and then discuss my situation.
Background: Mechanical Engineering Graduate (GPA 2.6)
GMAT: Attempted but scored only 500.
Work Ex.: 3 years but in corporate; not Mechanical.
Indian
Age:25.

As you can see, my profile is pretty bad to even consider. But I always wanted to be an MBA from a top university in USA. Since my GMAT is not good and graduation's GPS's isn't that well either, I deleted the thought of applying for a good MBA in USA/CA (my preferred choice of countries). I have already wasted one year (2012) and I do not wish to waste this year too. I want to get settled as soon as I can.

Having said that, I have two offers in my hands right now:
1) Masters in International Business from HULT San Francisco -> Accepted
2) MBA from Aarhus University, Denmark -> Accepted

I have not applied anywhere else and I think its not a good time to apply also. I am stuck between these two options. Please help me out sort one.

I appreciate all your efforts and time.

Best,
Hollywood.

Hollywood,
Retake your GMAT. It's the only option in my opinion. With a 500 you will only get into schools that will likely not have good chances of getting you a job when you graduate, and will have gained little other than 80$K + in debt. Be patient!!! Retake until you crack a 650+. It's necessary to get into a worthwhile program.
