Hi Everyone,

Just need some advice from you guys on what schools I should apply for what my chances are:

GMAT: 670 (Q49V33)
Working experience: 6+ years in marketing - 4 years in China and other 2 years HK, and some other international experience - all big multinational companies
Undergrad major: marketing
GPA: 3.5

I'm thinking about these schools for MBA:

Oxford
Dartmouth

NYU
Emory
Georgetown

Cornell

Please can you share with me your recommendations? and what you think my chances are? Do you think I should take GMAT again?

thanks

If you were getting 700+ scores in your practice test score, there is no reason why you should not retake it as there is plenty of time for fall applications. Why to let a weak score put your application at disadvantage when you know you can do it better?

"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."
