GMAT Exam Deadline for FALL 19 and IELTS vs TOEFL

Hi there! I'm not sure if you meant to say top 300 schools or if you meant top 30. You definitely have a shot at top 300 if that's what you meant. With a 600-650, top 30 will be a bit of a stretch. In general you want to hit and ideally exceed a school's average GMAT score so that can be a helpful guide as you evaluate your chances at a school. That said, it will also depend in large part not just on the GMAT but also on the strength of your work experience, the impact you've driven, the industry you come from (if it's engineering/tech that will be tougher since it's a very competitive demographic, hence more need to set yourself apart) and your post-MBA goals.The essays are becoming increasingly personal & it's important to show not only what you have achieved professionally but also who you are as a person. It's important to convey a unique value proposition (in other words, what is your unique story? What can you uniquely contribute) to set yourself apart, especially if you are coming from a tech/engineering background. The fact that you are from Bangladesh will help set you apart from all the Indian tech/engineering applicants but you are still in a competitive group - and if you do not have a tech/engineering background all the better in terms of differentiating yourself! So, in summary I would say, use the school's average GMAT as a guide in gauging your competitiveness, but there are definitely all these other facts that are critical to the strength of your application as well. Hope that helps!
