I would recommend you to work on higher GMAT... which given your background should not be an issue...

Also...global tier-1 MBA colleges prefer 2-4 years of work-ex....so you have time to build your profile

Hi Alchemist1320,

Thanks for the reply.

But,time is a constraint for me. :(

I am looking to get into an MBA program starting fall 2012.

So, if I can make it into a decent university with this profile, I am happy with that.

Thanks,
