GMAT score 690. Where Universities should I aim for, for an MS in Finance?

I am a BTech in Computer Science and have no relevant professional work experience. I am considering a MS in Finance. Can you suggest which Universities would be the best bet for my profile? Indian, Male, Engineer, GRE 690, GPA 3.2/4.

You’d get into Villanova, JHU, OSU, etc. I think you’d struggle at Vanderbilt, BC, UT, USC.

690 isn’t bad, but a 3.2 is lowish and being International will make it harder.

This is a high level opinion though as I don’t know about your work experience, etc.

 

Thanks a ton. My work ex has been primarily into Supply Chain Operations which isn't very relevant to the MS programs. Will that make a difference?

What else can I do in the next 3-4 months to improve my chances for BC or USC?
