I had quit to move on to a more challenging role. I moved back to the UAE but have been unfortunate in job search. So, I have been learning music and language (french) to better myself. I also do teach french and keyboard for a few neighborhood kids. I have also volunteered for a short time at a school for children with special needs. I am not sure if these will help my application in any way.
I understand my profile is not really great because of my really low GMAT score ( I have probably reached threshold) and the really long gap.
I would like to know the range of schools that I can target. For now, I have Rotman, Queen's, Ross, Schulich, Tepper and Fuqua.
Thanks a ton!!

Hello PrincessPanda
Thanks for getting in touch. So when evaluating your profile, I worry that schools will focus on your lack of current employment. It sounds like you are struggling to find a good job but I really recommend that you nail that down before applying. Schools are a little wary of candidates who are using the MBA to fill a gap caused by a lack of employment, especially when it's long-term as it appears here. I think in your case, it could really make your candidacy difficult.
Regarding the GMAT, you're right...the score is a bit lower than we'd like to see. Have you considered the GRE? You might find that better suited to your talents. Give a mock exam a try! Especially with the lack of employment today, there will be a lot more pressure on your score.
I hope that helps!
