Hi vasureddy18,

Your GMAT score is near the averages of the schools you are applying to (average of Said for example was 685). If you feel you can improve your score by more than 50 points, it may be worth taking again.

However, you should focus your application on how to express your leadership skills, as this will be a key component of your application. Here is a case study of someone with limited leadership experience but who was accepted into both Harvard and the Stanford GSB; it should provide some insight:

Hope this was of help.

Cheers,

Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
