No not easy . When you take a mock you don't rest .. so I knew it would actually go better. Verbal i find it a bit lengthy... And official mocks are 99% accurate to Final exam

645, if your profile is strong... else 675 should be a safer score

If you are confident of improving score then apply in second round instead...

Be careful of every step this time and work afresh...

The assessment of rejection done by candidates can be flawed so keep an open mind about every aspect of application.

A score of 675 usually is a strong support one can rely on to get admission.

Did you carry out the ding analysis by anyone?
To save one full-year, why didn't you try to IIMB and IIMC, equally great schools?

Hello everyone, any clue on the average GRE score for IIM A PGPX?

I have a 326 GRE with 169Q, does that seems like a fair figure to go ahead and work on the applications in details?(considering there are other factors that will obviously contributing to success and GRE is just a part)

Hi guys,
Can someone please tell me the target gmat score for my profile for ISB and IIM ABC PGPEX?
X - 97
XII - 97.2
Grad - 9.4/10
GNEM
4 years of experience as a Quant Associate in a leading IB.
PORs in school and college; 1 fast track promotion
Internships - IB, Data Analysis
NGO experience in college

My GMAT mock scores are fluctuating between 605-685. Even when it’s a 685, I know the mistakes are very careless and could be avoided but I haven’t yet touched my target mock score of 705+. It’s either DI or Verbal or both pulling me super down. I really want to apply in R1 but want to know the decent gmat score basis my profile? Should I book it and be done and focus on application?

Hi Kushagrasarswat, Your target score based on profile should be 665-675 for you to be competitive enough in all the mentioned college. Needless to say, the higher the better.

For your preparedness, you can take a call. If you can beat the score of 665-675 before R1, it should be decent enough to apply (given you allot enough time for application and interview preparation).

Best Wishes.

What all does IIM-A require to fill in the first phase of the application?

Also, if IIM-A gives out the invite for sharing our essays , does that imply that the person also has confirmed interview? OR is the interview shirtlist released later?

First phase of application is about personal, professional, educational and extra curricular details.
Also, if IIM-A gives out the invite for sharing our essays , does that imply that the person also has confirmed interview? - YES
OR is the interview shirtlist released later? - NO
After shortlist, applicant has to submit essays, CV and appear for interview (with extempore)
