Hello everyone,
I am aiming to submit the bulk of my applications in round 2. The one concern I keep having is regarding my GMAT score. I took the test back in 2011 and scored a 710 (Q44 = 68%, V44 = 97%). Normally I would be satisfied with the score but am worried about the big gap between quant and verbal, especially the fact that quant is lower than where I would like it to be.
Should I take a prep course and re-take the GMAT? (will need practice as I'm not a great test-taker and haven't touched the GMAT in 3 years) OR am I better served spending the next 3 months making my written application and essays as best as possible?
My profile:
Schools targeting: London Business School, Wharton, Chicago Booth, UCLA, NYU
Age: 26/M
GPA: 3.75 from top-20 university
GMAT: 710 (Q44 / V44)
Work experience: 5 years corporate finance in tech sector
Extracurriculars: leadership in college and at work, founded a nonprofit 2 years ago
Thanks in advance for the advice!
