Dear Paul,
I wrote the GMAT for the third time and my scores are as follows:
Total: 750
Quant: 51
Verbal: 40
The rest of my profile hasn't changed much since the last query I posted in this forum. The only additional change to the content of my previous query, apart from the GMAT score, is that I have been teaching math to students preparing for GMAT/GRE. The firm I work for is called T.I.M.E. (it's a leading name in the field of Entrance Coaching in India) and I've been teaching there for 5 months. This brings the cumulative work experience to 2.5 years (will be 3.5 by fall 2012)
Kindly recommend the names of colleges to which I can apply with the given score and profile.
Thanks and Regards,
Amrith Sudhakaran
P.S.

I would like to thank you in advance for taking the time to help me narrow down the list of Business Schools to Apply to for the Fall, 2011 Full-Time MBA Program.
