Hi,

Is your 580 GMAT Sore still valid? Please let me know so that I can suggest you b schools accordingly. I would suggest you to retake you GMAT so that you target few good ranking b schools. If are not planning to retake your GMAT and then there are few b schools you can apply- Univ of Oklahoma and Vlerick Business School.

Feel free to write if you have further queries.

Cheers!
