I have MBA degree and I am trying to apply for some business schools in US for PhD in Strategy. But my GMAT score is not high.
Its 600 and my TOEFL is 112 IBT and my GPA is 3.7.
which business schools do you recommend? The ranking is not important for me and if it is more than 100 it's OK.
I prefer some schools in Boston . How about Boston college ?

I just got into BC with a 600 GMAT... that is a fine score considering your high GPA. Go for it!

I agree that BC is a great school. I would definitely add BU to the list.

Going to a school in Iran will give your application a piece of cultural diversity that will be valued. Don't let a 600 on the GMAT hold you back.

If you think you can improve that score 30-50 points, it would be well worth the effort!

In general, I recommend you pick 4-5 schools. Make a 1 a stretch school and then pick the rest in your target range.

Best,

Jay

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
