Suggest MBA schools and specialisation considering my GMAT score and work experience background.


I gave GMAT 2 times, both time got 560. although i was excepting around 650, specially in second try, while i did good in mock testn getting almost around 650 everytime( except one time got 570 and 680 in veritas tests)

well 560 is my final GMAT score after all hard work and spending last six months in it. deadlines are coming near and i am also frustrated by studing Gmat. I can think about giving gmat again.

I will be so glaid if you suggest me some MBA Schools on this score. I have completed my graduation in mechanical engineering. I have total three years experience( if consider experience after my diploma in automobile engg, total 4 yesrs exp). I have worked with a local lab equipment manufacturer company as operation manager, after that got job in VOLTAS Limited, which is reputed india base MNC, where i worked as senior engineer(managing HVAC project) for 1 and half years. after that joined and currently working with an agricultural products exporting company to enhance my knowledge in practical business. but this job is not same as my previous technical jobs.

Also I have some good extracurricular activities such as organising robotics workshop, member in some collage clubs, winning two times in university for innovative ideas competition, currently working with many NGOs actively etc.

my aim is to get admission in such a mba school so, I will get good job after my mba in USA and settle there.

plz suggest specialisation in mba and mba schools in USA, considering my score and work exprience.

The short story is that you should at least consider re-taking the GMAT. For international students looking to transition to working in the US, a ranked MBA program is usually considered the best bet; and the better the school you can get into, the better your post-MBA job prospects would be.

Even the schools at the bottom of the Businessweek ranking, like Case Weatherhead and Denver - Daniels, for instance, tend to have average GMAT scores of at least 600. Add in the facts that you're in a competitive application group, and have relatively low work experience, and you're a long shot at best.
