Strange. I got the same quant and verbal score, but only a 720.

Well here is the detailed version fellows........

In the feedback i received from Darden and Cornell, both schools pointed out 2 strong factors that went against me
1. My GMAT score of 690 which was far below the average score of candidates with a similar profile
2. The fact that i had given my GMAT way back in September 2007....




Shoot. I took my GMAT in June 2008 and am applying to MBA schools now. I don't see why they'd hold that against me. It's not like I've become dumber in the past 2 years...just wanted to get it out of the way.

question-- how did you get feedback from Darden and Cornell???
