Chances for Tier 2 school (Duke, Vandy etc) for MS Finance

Hello everyone,

What are my chances for tier 2 school for MS Finance..have my eye on Vandy. I went to a non-target undergrad with a 3.5 GPA in accounting with two internships and doing Operations FT now.

Are there other schools you guys recommend ? Also i have not preped for the GMAT yet.

They are between 0%-90% but that is really the narrowest range I can provide with the information you have given me.

This to all my hatin' folks seeing me getting guac right now..
 

Programmer, my math background sucks. The most I've taken is up to Calc 3.

Also i have been in Operations for about 2 months, would that look bad when i apply to MS Finance schools?

ANT, what GMAT should i aim for?
