Dear Experts,
Today was my test day and here's my score:
Total 610 Q44 V30
This is lower than my target score of 650. I'm looking at B-schools in India only for an exec MBA like ISB, IIMs,SPJIMR,NMIMS. I would like to know if 650 is worth pursuing knowing i've 4 weeks to another attempt. I've about 7 years of work ex in consulting.
I've not yet exhausted my training materials and some powder is still dry in this respect.
Also in this attempt (though i cant possibly complain about difficulty), i found out the several questions on both the sections were extremely time consuming and difficulty level was pretty high. I feel I need to improve score.
please advise me on a sound retake strategy (and realistic target score) and additional materials required. The following materials are available with me:
1. MGMAT Strategy guides,
2. Kaplan GMAT complete
3. OG+QR+VR SET FOR 2017 works.

Hi adityanarayanan01,
You're ultimately asking Admissions questions, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of them here:
ask-admission-consultants-124/
GMAC has publicly stated that the Official Score that you earn on Test Day is within +/- 30 points of actual ability, so you could conceivably have scored higher on the Official GMAT (although you could also have scored lower). Your Official Score is right in line with many of the practice CAT scores that you've mentioned, so it's likely that if you kept studying in the same ways as before (and with the same materials as before) that you would earn a similar score. You do have the potential to hit a 650+ score in 4 weeks, but you would have to make some adjustments to how you 'respond' to the Test - and that would likely include learning/practicing some new Tactics.
