I took the GMAT today. I got a 700 (Q47, V38). I had been scoring in the 690-720 range in all my GMATPreps, so this score is close. The only thing I question is that with the sectional scaled scores, I should have got 680 or 690 tops....but hey, I'm not complaining

GMAT done...I don't think I'll undertake such an effort again...I'm satisfied with a mere 700. It does make me feel a little small when I read about people with 720 and beyond. It seems quite a norm on this forum.
I benefited a lot from this forum and for that I thank everyone...
cheers

There's nothing small about a 700. This is a score that nearly all of my students would be elated about! It is a perfectly balanced score

You shouldn't feel "small" at all. 700 is a great score. You have joined the 700 club, you should feel great. This forum is very daunting, with a ton of high scores. What you should know, is that you're one of them now. I don't know the exact percentage for a 700, but I'm guessing its above 90th percentile. Just think, your score was better than 90% of all other test scores taken in the last 2-3 years. That's impressive!
