Dear
tirthankardI'm happy to respond.
My friend, what you need to understand: I am a GMAT expert, but not an admission consultant. I can tell you a great deal about studying for the GMAT, answering specific questions, etc. I know very little about business schools in the USA, and I know NOTHING AT ALL about business school in India. Those, I'm sure, are very fine schools, but I just know nothing about getting admitted to them. I think you need to talk to a qualified admission consultant to review your overall application.
At the very least, if you contact those schools and the admission departments, they should give you some idea of a range of target GMAT scores. I think, though, your goal should not be some external target: I think your goal, as always in life, should be to do the very best that you can do.
Here is a three-month study plan:

Magoosh and follow that plan, then that will give you a very good shot at doing the best you can on the GMAT.
Does all this make sense?
