GMAT 590 - Civil Engineer - 4.5 years [#permalink] New post   12 Apr 2018, 07:28
Hi,

I’m looking forward for my MBA but I don’t think I’ll be able to write the GMAT again. I scored 590 in my maiden attempt and have an experience of 4.5 years in the construction industry in India. I have been working with a Project Management Consultancy as a Field Engineer after my graduation in Civil Engineering.

Please let me know what colleges should I apply to. TIA!

Hi tusharpachauri,

Thanks for your query.

Considering you were able to score a 590 in your first attempt, we are confident that a retake will help you boost your score by at least a few points. Frankly, the 590 is quite low and something around even a 620/630 would open up a whole lot of options for you. Nonetheless, in case you are bent on applying with a 590, you could look at the Canadian programs ranked between 15 and 25. You could also look at a few lower ranked US programs.

Should you feel the need for a detailed discussion, do reach out to us.

All the best!

Thank you for your post. Are you open to a part-time or online MBA? If so we would have more options for you at higher ranked schools.

That said, it would be great to learn more about you. Undergrad school and GPA, current company and title, and EC leadership to start.

tusharpachauri,
YOU need to do some research yourself as well. That is the only way for you to get what you are capable of.

Come on now,
When people working 80 hours a week can find ways to devote time to pursue what they really want, you can too..
You need to first show yourself you are ready for that 150,000 K USD commitment... (Plus opportunity cost), before you invest another dime in it.
