Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

I just appeared my first attempt at GMAT and scored 660 [Q 50 and V 29]. I know completely screwed up the verbal section. However I am not keen on re-applying unless really needed.
Here is my profile:
Work experience: 6 yrs work experience in software testing in 3 different companies in Bangalore
Age: 27
Sex: F
Academic performance: 10th: 90%, 12th: 81%, degree: 71%
I want to get into IT management/finance
Do you think I have a chance of getting into ISB? I can not afford going abroad for my MBA, so I am looking for something inside India. So I am not selected for ISB, is there anything else I can look at?

Hello,
You may not like what i am not going to say now - I would suggest you that take a break of 15 days and rethink about retaking the test, there are so many students who get tired of GMAT and do not think of retaking, but believe me a break of 10-15 days might change your perspective.
Given your profile, ISB is a bit stretch for you. ISB has almost 80-85% Indian students, the school has an average of 700+.
Am not sure about your graduate degree (assuming you are an engineer, because most of the profiles i get with software experience have engineering background), so if you are engineer, you will have tougher time with ISB.
With reference to other options, I would suggest you to look at the one year full time programs of IIMs (except IIM A - this could be a stretch, not only in GMAT but also in terms of work Ex), these programs are good ROI.
Hope this helps, feel free to get back for any help
Good Luck

Thank you very much for the reply, it really helped.
I am thinking of retaking the test soon, because I am sure I can do better.
In the mean time is there any way you think I can make my profile look stronger? anything I need to add to or subtract from my existing profile?
