Assessing my chances due to low IR
[#permalink]
20 Feb 2014, 22:34
I just gave my GMAT yesterday and scored a decent 730.
IR-3 - 23rd Percentile.
Q-49 - 81st Percentile.
V-40 - 90th Percentile.
Overall-730 - 96th Percentile.
Yes, exactly, the pain point is 3 in IR. Graphs and DI have never been a problem. In fact the low score was very surprising and annoying. I cannot recollect to have scored as low as 3 in any of the mocks that I gave.
Anyway, the main reason why I am posting this is because I want to know the impact of IR score on my application. I am planing to apply in 2016/2017 after a good 2-3 years of experience.
The schools that I am looking at are:
ISB, INSEAD, NUS, IE, IESE, Columbia, HAAS, Duke, NTU, Tepper, Booth, Darden, Tuck.
Just to fill in the experts with a brief description of my profile,
I have an okayish profile with a good number of extra curricular activities and leadership accolades, including an international exchange program. However, I have a very poor gpa from my undergrad college. I'm currently working in EMC as an Associate consultant, working primarily on Big Data Analytics.
Thanks in advance Smile
