A good GRE score depends heavily on the program you're aiming for. Generally, top graduate schools expect GRE scores of about 320 or higher. According to Harvard Business School, and Stanford Business School candidates typically score around 330 in GRE to get admitted into top b-schools.

However, a GRE score around 315 to 320 can still be competitive for many reputed graduate schools, especially if the rest of your profile is strong. For example, the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business has accepted candidates with GRE scores ranging from 310 upwards if their essays, work experience, and recommendations stand out.

Remember, your GRE score is important, but it's just one part of your application. Admissions committees care about your complete profile including your essays, recommendations, and experiences. So, even if your GRE isn't at the very top, showcasing your skills and clearly outlining your goals can significantly strengthen your chances.
