Hey guys,
Just now I am able to write about my GMAT experience which was a complete disaster. I was extremelly nervous and my score was...470
. It is true...after 4 months of work I am feeling really down and thinking whether I will be able to sit again the exam. I can't understand how did I get this result since in the GMATprep I was scoring between 680 and 710...even my huge workload at work can't justify this. I am taking a week off study so that I am able to recover.
My biggest concern at the moment is that even if I get a great result next time, the selection committee will always see this crap result. I know I can do much better...

Hey buddy
dont worry ...i just think u have had a bad day
what i would suggest is that take some time off i.e. 15 - 20 days give u r mind some rest and then i think u ll be in a better position to evaluvate
if u r getting a 680 - 710 score there is every reason that u are meant for a better score than what u got
take care

Hi carol,
Don't be disappointed, I've seen the caliber of your posts and I can tell that you have underperformed. Take it again, now that you've seen how it works, you will be a lot more confident about it. Having one poor score on the record doesnt prevent you from getting admitted. Most schools have an optional essay where you can explain that you have one low gmat because <some reason> - end of story.
I personally know of another guy in the forum who took it, got 400s ... retook it TWICE and ended with a 700 and then he ended up in Wharton. So that should allay fears of being rejected for one poor score for you.
