Target Schools :With the 720 GMAT- your "targets" are going to be Mendoza and Tepper. Stretches will be Tuck and Ross and Darden and Yale. Remember that whatever the "avg" GMAT score is- for a candidate from India just go ahead and throw 20-30 more points on there to be "avg" for that school as most likely the highest GMAT scores are coming from India and you are being compared to your pool of applicants. That's why while a 720 is a great score overall, to be on the safe side from India it would help more to be a 740 to make sure you make all the screens in a school. What happens is that there will be far fewer applicants with those higher scores and the schools will look to fill their class from that group first- and if they can- and they often can-- the people in the 700-720 range are fighting for just a few seats and it is harder to break through the clutter at that point. Other schools I'd look at for you right now: Emory, McCombs, Cornell as your current GMAT may go farther there.... Best wishes to you and if you would like to learn more how we can help you be one of the people who has the compelling story that breaks through the noise... seek us out for a free consult... https://stratusprep.com/admissions/busi ... onsulting/
