I have quit my job and started studying for GMAT and in parallel working a non-governmental organisation.

Also I have done lot of websites out of personal interest and one website.

I found couple of schools for my score: Mason, Fordham, Iowa state, Hult, Thunderbird, Cass, Katz and Rutgers.

Post MBA goal: To work for few hours and start my own business.

Please let me know what are my chances to get into any of the above schools.

Many Thanks.

Hi there,

I may have responded on another forum (??), but in any case, have you considered re-taking the GMAT? Simply because at that score level there is lots of potential for improvement, and schools take the highest score... in fact they may wonder why you DIDN'T re-take if this was your own score. In any case a stronger GMAT would help even with the schools you mentioned; also the fact that you quit your job could be a small hurdle to deal with too, even with the NGO involvement... may come down to how you really explain/address this.

Good luck on your decisions and process!
