Quant 760 verbal 630

Guys please tell me whether a score of 760 in quant could be good enough to get me in the first 20 universities. I have a GPA of 3.7 and have participated in certain technical events.

come guys . suggest some universities. I am really confused whether to go for another try or to look out for universities.

Try improving on Quant.
But let me tell you that GRE score doesn't matter much.
You should give it a shot @760. Your good acad can save you

where did you do your undergrad? was it ME as well? any job experience? hard to say without knowing everything else.

i'd say you'll have a hard time getting into the top 5 unless you went to a highly ranked undergrad school. You should be able to get into a few schools ranked 5-10, and everything ranked 10+ should let you in. Don't take my word for it tho! So apply to a couple schools in the top 5, maybe all the schools from 5-10, and a few 10+ just to make sure you do get in....

ALSO, you'll have a harder time getting accepted into MS Programs than Phd. Just go for a Phd. don't bother with an MS. :-)
