How much score in GMAT can land me in top 25 US school
Hey there good sir,
For you to get into a top US school, a 710+ will be good, if you can get higher it would be better. But just as important as your GMAT is everything else, especially your work experience. Besides "just" advancing in your technical job, the schools want to see proof of great success, interest in leadership, good teamwork and initiative. And these are things you can for sure start to work on now.
Besides that, I'd suggest getting involved ina volunteer post outside of work, preferable (if possible) not tutoring and one with leaderhip.
That, plus succeeding at work, plus your GMAT should keep you busy enogh over the next 1-3 years!
