Since Analytics is one upcoming field and I have started my career as a data analyst in financial services, I would like to stick to this field.
I have been hearing from people that this is one good area where I can differentiate myself from the rest of the applicants pool ( Is it really so? )
1) I wanted to know with this score which are the universities I can apply?
2) What are the aspects I need to improve upon to aim for better schools (definitely GMAT score) other than the schools state above.
3) Would a 700 on GMAT score with this application and good essays and LOR fetch me admission from top 20 colleges?
4) Are Top 10 schools far from me?
or Can I offset this Low GMAT with this application?
Please help me out. Hoping for a reply. Would help me a lot going forward.
Thanks and cheers
