profile evaluation

Hi,

My GMAT score is 680(Q49,V34) 1st attempt.
work ex: 30 months in MNC Wipro Techonologies (IT industry).
CGPA : 6.24 Electronics and Communication engineering from NIT Allahabad, India.

Could you please guide me as to the colleges i may apply for. I am aiming for the top 20 colleges. How realistic is this?
Also could you tell me about scholarship programs and how to obtain them.

Thanks.
rachel

Hi! It's very difficult for me to tell you where to apply to business school. You need to consider what is important to you - do you want to be in a city or on a college campus? Do you want to have a flexible or mandatory curriculum? Do you like the case study method of teaching or lectures? All of those factors - and more - will impact where you decide to apply. As for your GMAT score, a 680 is a good score, but it's on the lower end of many of the top 20 programs. In addition, you are competing against others with similar backgrounds who tend to score very well on the GMAT (in the mid-700s). That will mean you really will have to highlight your accomplishments and experiences that will make you stand out when compared with others.

Best of luck,

Rachel Beck
