Advise needed.. Should I retake the GMAT? [#permalink] New post 30 Jul 2011, 08:13
Hi all,

I wrote the GMAT today and scored 700 (Quant-46, VA-40). I wrote pretty decent essays, guessing should get a >=5 in AWA.

I have sent my scores to the following schools :

ISB, Emory University (Goizueta), UCLA, UNC (Kenan Flagler), Tepper.

I dunno if my score is good enough or not. Can someone please advise? Should I retake the test or is the score worth pursuing?

I have 2+ years of work ex and loads of extra curricular activities and social work.. If a detailed profile info is required will do so in the next post. For now can someone please tell me if m good to go?!

Thanks :)

Hey Deepti387,
pretty similar scores and target schools for both of US, though I am leaning more on 1 year Euro schools.
I am in a similar dilemma too, but majority of the advice i recieved on this forum and elsewhere is that that wouldnt be required.
Let me know what u finally decide.

What will you think is a good score? If you look at the average of the schools you're aiming for, I believe they're all around 700, with the exception of Anderson being a bit higher than 710. However, the mid-80% range of all schools include the score of 700. I think your score is good enough, but of course, the higher the better (in a way). If you think you can do better next time with a 730 or more, yes, I think you can go for it, if and only if you're not aiming for round 1. If you are, I'd highly recommend against it.
