Hi! I am just wondering what my options are or what other people would do in my situation.
I took the GMAT yesterday and I got a 700.
Quant: 42
Verbal: 44
IR: 8
Total: 700
AWA: 6
GPA 3.51
I am a kindergarten teacher in Kansas City. I want to go to business school and I want to learn about Marketing. I have work experience only in teaching kindergarten for 3 years.
I was only planning on applying to my local school. Now I am wondering if I should try to apply at a few better schools. I don't know if I have a chance because I have no business experience. If I do...what schools might be the best that I have a chance at? Any advice about what I should to would be great!
