Any reason why you do not have University of Western Ontario (Ivey) which has been traditionally ranked as the top B school in Canada?

Hi there,
Congrats on taking a hard but sensible decision. A 660 (I'm guessing) is probably in the low to mid 80's percentile.
For a serious app with an non IIT degree, a score in the low to mid 700's (low to mid 90's) is probably more suited.
The above is not to diss you, but just my 2 cents.

If you want to do an MBA in Canada first see that you are
1) Below 32 when you graduate.
2) Have a brand name company in your work experience (multinational like P & G etc.)
3) Are good at networking and selling yourself.
4) After that comes the academics
If you do not have the above 3, the fourth will do nothing for you.

On what basis do you make this statement?
For Canadian business schools, a GMAT score of 580-770 is acceptable, if you have good work experience and reference. Average score is 660.
