Ashutosh,

Your verbal score on the GMAT is a significant weakness and if you think you can raise it, you should try again.

Assuming you don't raise it, consider University of South Carolina, Thunderbird, Indiana, and Vanderbilt in the US. You may also want to consider NUS, but your GMAT is low for that program.

Best,
Linda
