Hi all,
Studied 2 months, and hard work pays off. Will admit that I am slightly disappointed in my Quant score since I was hitting Q49/Q50 on all practice tests.
This forum is amazing. Great work everyone here does, keep it up!
Test results:
Q48
V41
IR: 8/8
AWA 6/6
Total: 730 (96th percentile)
Still a little upset at myself for missing those 2 quant questions since I was pressed for time. Those could've been the Q49!
My undergrad GPA was a 3.0 flat in petroleum engineering. (Family financial issues, had to take a leave of absence to support my injured father, but will discuss in optional essay)
My grad gpa (masters petroleum engineering) is a 3.5.
I was/am president and VP of multiple professional engineering/charitable societies.
I can put a compelling story together.
I have 4 years experience in engineering, and a smaller boutique management consulting company that caters to O&G upstream industry.
1) Do y'all think I should re-take? I feel Q48 is low for HBS/Sloan/Wharton?
2) Do AWA/IR matter? I know I crushed them, but will they even help me?
Sloan is my #1 choice at the moment, as 2 of my managers went there and I can get a letter of support, and rec letter.
Thanks!

Your GMAT score is really good. If you know you can score higher, you may retest again. 730 GMAT score is around the median of Harvard Business School. Your higher graduate GPA will offset your low undergraduate GPA. Engineering GPA are usually lower than humanities/social sciences/arts GPA. I wish you Goodluck.
