hi all..
I just gave my gmat today, and messed it up big time. Scored 640
.. I was targeting ISB.. I know its a very low score.. too low to even talk about it.. n for 640 my work ex of 38 months as on today.. is low..but Mr. kannan has said it so many times about gmat score being just one thing... now my heart says MAYBE.. :D... to friends having experiences of ISB shortlisting patterns plz help. I wanna ask if i should still even try for 1st round..My profile is as under:
1. Had arrngd functions, gettogethers,etc on a medium scale when I was very small.. know its very small thing and might not even be worth mentioning...
2. scored 77--12th and 79 in grad.
3. Had represented school in handball at district level.
4. Had been very active in college and worked in 5 diff committees in college. headed hostel mess committees with no. of residents at around 500 for 2 years our in graduation..
5. had participated in no of tech fest... won some lost some..

10. have clear objectives to tell.. 5 years..10 years down the line..
11. ESSAYS: lets say if I do well in them....?
do i have a chance...?? Should I give a try in 1st round, or should give GMAT again and apply in 2nd round.. because I will need some preparation.. cannot take risk of scoring back to back low scores..
