<p>do you need for top 50 biz schools</p>
<p>There is no exact number. It really depends on your background, qualifications, and the schools you are considering.</p>
<p>For example, SMU is a top 50 biz school. It's average GMAT last year was 644. It's 25% to 75% range was 570-720. If you have rare experiences and background you could score lower. If you had a very high GPA then you could score a bit lower. If your GPA was low, then a high GMAT score may be necessary.</p>
<p>U-Florida, my school has a median GMAT of 680, ranked 41 by US NEWS</p>
<p>I'd shoot for 700+ for top schools.</p>
