Hi,

I am a computer and network engineer and have 6 years of experience. I am well-paid in my company.

But I want to continue my MBA. I scored a poor gmat score: 590 (Q: 41 - V:30)

Should I go ahead and apply for AUB for example? Is it worth especially that I want to shift to managerial positions? I will have to leave my company and have a part-time job.

I hear sometimes that a 590 score is not a barrier to enter the top 100 B-schools such as fisher and georgiatech or essec (france). Is it worth to apply?

thank you

In the US, most universities publish average required GMAT score or a minimum GMAT score. Some university will not review your application if your GMAT score is below a certain level. If you are well paid, why do you want to leave your current job? Have you considered going part time to graduate school? Think about the opportunity cost!

But if you really want to attend graduate school, re-take your GMAT and apply to decent or semi-decent school in the US. Most US universities will waive your tuition and give you a stipend if your GMAT score above 600.

Good luck
