Worst GMAT Experience!! [#permalink] New post   28 Oct 2016, 01:54
Hi all,

Today i took my GMAT finally after 3 months of preparation and my scores came out to be very bad around 560(Q49V19).I had scored good in almost all mocks above 650 and expected atleast 600 - 650 in my actual GMAT.Now i have no clue whether i could apply to any MBA uiversities with my current score.Please suggest whether i could apply to canadian B- Schools with my score.

My GPA is 4.0
Am willing to apply for -

1.Sauder Business School
2.University of Victoria
3.University of Alberta.

As an Indian Applicant its tough to get with my low score But is there any possibiiity of getting admit.

The chances don't look so good in that range -particularly with a very weak verbal score. In your situation, we would recommend a retake. At the minimum, you want to bump your verbal score up over 25 - which is definitely possible.

Are you aware of which verbal sections you are weakest in?

Hi gthrb22,

Before I can offer you the specific advice that you’re looking for, it would help if you could provide a bit more information on how you've been studying and your goals:

Studies:
1) What study materials have you used?
2) How have you scored on each of your CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
3) Did you take the FULL CAT each time (including the Essay and IR sections)?

Goals:
4) What is your goal score?
5) When are you planning to retake the GMAT?
6) When are you planning to apply to Business School?

Since you're ultimately asking Admissions questions, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:
