Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

I'm preparing for my GMAT by myself until Kaplan starts in September. My GMAT is at the end of October. I've committed to applying to at least Tepper and Babson, but schools such as Lally, Chicago GSB, and Kenan-Flagler are on the fence. I'm probably going to get to complete my applications in time for the R2 deadlines at the earliest, though I haven't gotten started on a personal summary, formally setting up recommenders, and working on application essays...let alone considering financial aid.
On top of that, I'm part of a massive CRM initiative at work that will get really intense during September and October up to its launch date.
Is my timeframe to apply to MBA programs too compressed? Should I hold off a year?

I would say hold off a year. But then again, that depends on:
1. how old you are. If you are already pushing 30+, then you are on the older end of the student age-range. So, applying sooner makes more sense.
2. your 'readiness' for B-school. Can you build your profile significantly (
including the GMAT) over the next year? If yes, then consider waiting a year.

I'm 28 now; I'll be 30 if I start after holding off a year. I've been briefed on what I could be doing after this project at work is completed in October, it may or may not bolster my profile.
