Hi Robo_123,
That's a good profile, and you can apply to any school that you're interested in. As far as the GMAT is concerned, 645 is a good score, so a retake isn't necessary. However, a higher score could improve your chances.
All the best.

Hi Robo_123,
Regarding your GMAT, 645 is certainly a very solid score; however, if you think you can bump up your GMAT by another 40+ points, it certainly would help. Let us know what you end up deciding to do.

). It's also very scholarship friendly.
