Hi. I'd appreciate some opinions on this:

GPA 3.3 from better than average but not excellent school, 31 years old, 5 years experience as a PM in a big tech company, looking to pivot to corporate finance, but not 100% committed to that idea yet. If I stay in my field, I'd be using the MBA to hopefully get past the ceiling I've hit at the moment.

Thanks.

Shall we assume you are a white, US, male with a 660 GMAT? Test scores and demographic are crucial.

Sorry Duncan, totally missed that. I am white and American and scored 645 on the new GMAT focus. Thanks.

Take a look at GMAT Tiers - strong schools for your GMAT www.find-mba.com/board/27082

Assuming you are looking for full time US programs, you will need a very strong mission and application to enter the top 15, and even the top 25 is a stretch (the average for the Top 25 US schools is over 700). The sub-700 schools are CMU, Emory, Georgetown, Indiana and U Washington.

PS Are you looking at 2025? Could a Masters in Finance be an option somewhere like Babson, Berkeley or Vanderbilt.
