NYU Stern Langone program [#permalink]
26 Jan 2013, 12:35
Hi, I guess I already know the answer but I'm still taking a chance. I have a fairly reasonable work ex - 7 years in engineering, marketing and product management. I've held leadership positions in my school and have initiated a few community based programs but my GMAT score was a disaster. I took it in fall 2012 and have just not been motivated enough to take it again after the disaster.. I got a 550. Honestly I was well prepared. My test scores were in the 670-690 range but the D day was a disaster. Do you think I stand a chance at Langone part time or I really need to take GMAT again or may be apply to Rutgers. Please let me know Thanks

The first thing you need to ask yourself is how much you want the Lagone MBA or if you just want an MBA. NYU's part-time program is one of the best and it'll carry some serious weight. That being said, you know the answer: re-take the GMAT. Getting an MBA isn't a walk in the park. The good news is since it's a part-time program, there are multiple times you can start (as opposed to the fall only option for most FT programs), so re-taking the GMAT shouldn't slow you down as much. To illustrate, here's NYU's part-time class profile. As you can see, a 550 is well below 620, the score 10% of the entering class is below. http://www.stern.nyu.edu/programs-admissions/part-time-mba/community/class-profile/Good luck!

Agreed, if you were in the upper 600s on practices, I would re-take. If you have your heart set on NYU, I wouldn't give up without a fight.
