Disappointed and Frustrated.
This time took a different coaching and it sucked. My verbal even went down.
Dont know what happened. I was really cool doing the exam and i knew i did well on Quant.
Guessed almost 3-4 questions in IR section and somehow still got 5.
In verbal, I was running short of time in the middle. So I guessed 2 questions in a single RC passage and moved on. Rest all questions I solved.
Not sure what happened. To be very true, I believe my potential is to score 670-680.
Anyways, Long story short: 26, M, Indian, 1st GMAT score: 600.
Have an admit from Williams and Mary with $20000 scholarship.
What will you guys suggest?
1. Retake GMAT 3rd time in a couple of months and apply in R3?
2. Apply with current scores to top 50 US colleges?

Vaggar!
I feel you should take it the 3rd time! See brother you already know the tricks of the trade. You know what to study and what can be avoided. You already had a 600 you just need to push it to 700. Improve your quant score from 48 to 50 and verbal score from 20 to 36. That's it!
America has the best institutions, why go for tier 2/3 colleges when you deserve IVY? And the main part is your gonna do MBA only once but the benefits are lifelong. If your going to US you should only go there only if you get into top 20. 600 only means that you have put a little less effort than what was required.
I have heard good reviews about E-GMAT verbal. GC has an offer for premium subscription. $50 for 7 veritas tests, free egmat videos and 1300 quant questions, $50 is Rs3000 looks a bit expensive in INR but trust me the benefits outweigh the costs!
Calm down, relax and have a beer. GMAT is just a test. Your probably gonna forget number system and idioms after 6 months!
Dont take things to your heart just give it another shot.

Rakshith

Thanks Rakshith for the motivation. However, I need to take some time off from this GMAT thing.
But then the R2 deadlines are in January and I wont be able to apply in R2.
Also, in R3, admission chances are less. So still confused.
Whats your story?
