Hi:
So I took GMAT for the first time, and I only got 590 (Q45/V26). I am originally from China, but I went to the University of Minnesota for my undergrad, I got a BS degree and my GPA is 3.57.
Working experience:
I am currently working full-time in NYC, and by the time when I plan to start my graduate school(fall 2015), I will have one year post-baccalaureate working experience for sure.
Besides, I did three internships in three countries during all my summer breaks while I was in college.
I had a full-time paid internship in the U.S.(summer 2013)
+ a part-time internship in London(gained credits, summer 2012)
+ a part-time internship in China (not paid, summer 2011).
Through the 4-year college, I also worked three other different part-time jobs(paid) for the university and also for a large retailer.Therefore, even though they are not professional jobs, do they still count as working experiences?
Special Activities:
I was the Vice President for a national honored fraternity for a year.
I was the social committee coordinator for my sorority.
I also participate some other school organizations and activities.
Besides, because I was in two Greek organizations, so I had some volunteer experiences as well.
Schools I target:
I really want to stay in NYC, so I don't want to consider other areas. Also I think my working experience is not strong enough to get a MBA degree, so I want to apply for MS in Marketing.
I target:
1.CUNY-Baruch College
2.NYU-SCPS
3.Pace University
4. Fordham University(This one is a little bit out of my GMAT range, so I am not sure if I should still try to apply)
---------
Do I have any chances with these schools' MS programs? I know maybe I should retake the GMAT, but I really don't have a lot of time to study (my current job is crazy), and I feel this is my level, I don't think my grades will improve dramatically, and I am worried about getting a worse grade on the second time...So I just want to know if I can use GMAT 590 to apply these schools with my background? or I'd better just take the GMAT again? Is GMAT my only disadvantage that could influence my application?

Let me ask you a question - a year into your career, why a masters now? If you tell me this is the absolute go-time for you, that's fine. But if it isn't - if you can wait a few years, then I'd tell you to pull up that GMAT and maybe target some better programs.

Hello Bhavik
Thanks for your reply. Well, it's complicated. Because I am now working on OPT -- I can only work for a year legally here, not many company would like to sponsor a bachelor's degree holder, so I have to get a master degree anyway. Therefore I have to go to graduate school to keep my legal status. And that's why I really need to get into a graduate school now. I know id doesn't sound reasonable, but I have to do it..
