Thanks Jennifer....
I was anyway not so hopeful about BU....
the UIUC prog i am applying to is MSFE and not MSF... its a comparatively new prog....

And regarding retaking the GMAT...I feel it is a little too late....
Can you advise me some masters program which are still within my reach??

And oh....my GPA... i got 68% in my engg... the topper was around 79%...

Thanks again......

Your GPA is only average as well, so you really do need a strong GMAT score to prove your academic ability. Tulane might make sense to add since your GMAT slightly exceeds its average. Yes, it is too late for this year to boost the GMAT, but if these applications are unsuccessful, I do recommend retaking and trying again next year.

It can't hurt to pick up some GMAT practice problems in the meantime; this will certainly keep your mind sharp to either retake the test in the coming months or enter a challenging academic program in the fall.
