Hi, and thanks for writing! While there are certainly medical professionals who get their MBAs, one thing I'm curious about: why do you want to make the career switch to management consulting, based on your experiences to date? What draws you to this role, and what is the impact that you want to make? I would clarify this before you make the decision to move forward with your MBA plans.
Given that the target GMAT score for the schools you're looking at is 650+, I think your current score will pose a challenge. Before I can suggest alternative schools, however, I'd need to learn a bit more about what you are trying to achieve with the MBA. Feel free to write back with a few more details and then I can help steer you in the right direction. Thanks!

Hi Nisha,
Thank you for writing back.
"why do you want to make the career switch to management consulting, based on your experiences to date?"
I am currently working on an entrepreneurial venture in healthcare; MBA followed by a management counsulting role would be a tremendous learning opportunity for me.
It would give the insight + experience that I currently lack, while learning best practices across multiple industries.
"What draws you to this role, and what is the impact that you want to make?"
same as above; with the long term goal of eventually being functional head of a global enterprise in the social impact sector.
I hope these answers provide better insight to my motivations.
Genuinely grateful for your expertise and guidance.
Regards.
