Hey Fudge,
So first of all, don't worry about that "being kicked out of school" thing in your 11th year. It's high school, and it no longer matters.
Second, you are I'm afraid, probably right about overreaching. I mean the average GMAT and the average GPA of admitted students to Top 20 programs are quite a bit above what you have, so unless you have some ace up your sleeve (like is your dad a State Minister?![;)]( "Wink")
) they are going to be far stretches.
Anyhow, actually the solution to all this is easy, because you really lack the work experience to apply to B-school anyhow. With 1 year and seven months, you are very much on the short end of things. So my suggestion: work another year, retake your GMAT (aiming for 700+) and let's see what we can do next year.
What do you think?
