You can go with that score itself. Since its valid for 5 years. Regarding the research in VLSI...
Texas A & M University--(good research in both analog & digital. Texas is the home for many VLSI industries)
University of Minnesota, Twin Cities--(excellent for analog)
Arizona State University--( comes under CE dept, very research in both analog & digital)
Oregon State University--( no 2nd word, temple for analog research)
University of Massachusetts, Amherst--( excellent for digital)
University of Texas, Austin--( brand name, location advantage, awesome for both)
University of Colorado, Boulder--( good courses in vlsi, not heard much about its vlsi research but good for embedded sys)
Texas Tech Univversity--(not heard much about its research, but no doubt location advantage)
