Now preparing to retake GMAT, but do not expect that high of 700 probably.
Wish to apply to a US-based b-school with solid curriculum and career prospects. Could accept lower tier schools between top50-100.
Could someone suggestion on this. Highly appreciate.
I've checked out Northeast U, SMU Cox, and TCU which can provide both many scholarships and internships.

well if money is not an issue you can apply to hult, although you will find a lot of bad things about hult on forums but keep in mind that those things were written 3 or 4 years back hult has come a long way since then. it's currently ranked at 57th position world wide along side ubc sauder on financial times world ranking and the last years placement figures are at 95% within 3 months of graduation. the Boston campus will be probably full by now but Sanfrancisco and London campuses are good as well.

Thks for your comments. Well Hult may not be recognized by Chinese Ministry of Education when getting back to China.And I can expect to obtain 650 for the retake. Not sure if any school around top50-100 provides scholarships or assistantships to further finance my study there.. <blockquote>well if money is not an issue you can apply to hult, although you will find a lot of bad things about hult on forums but keep in mind that those things were written 3 or 4 years back hult has come a long way since then. it's currently ranked at 57th position world wide along side ubc sauder on financial times world ranking and the last years placement figures are at 95% within 3 months of graduation. the Boston campus will be probably full by now but Sanfrancisco and London campuses are good as well.</blockquote>

Thks Duncan for the reply. Well I could expect around 650 for the retake. From finance prospective, actually I would know more about the the likelihood for scholarships or assistantships with a 650.<blockquote>Take a look at Shortcut to find the best US MBA www.find-mba.com/board/36065 for schools with an average GMAT around 50 points under your retake score. </blockquote>

I guess for that sort of financial aid, you should be looking for schools with GMAT averages more than 100 points under your score.
