Hi. I actually had a very important doubt and didn’t know whom to approach. I come from a PSU background and have 5 years of work ex. I plan to take the GMAT this year in September. But the issue is I have received a major penalty recently and was concerned if that would severly diminish my chances of getting into top IIMs or ISB or other top B-school?
It depends on what type of Penalty here we are talking about.
If the penalty questions something that is heavily weighted by the admission team at schools then it definitely has potential to diminish your chances.
Let me know in DM and I would be able to share with you the appropriate suggestion on how to see this penalty and how to go forward from here.

Hi guys. I would like to refine my translation of word questions into math. This includes dissecting the relationship between variables but also simplifying words to math in the most efficient way. Does anyone know of any resources that can help with this? Thanks!
Refer to questions of
1) Word Problem
2) Work Rate
3) Percentages and Profit and Loss
4) Time speed and Distance
Sources:
Filer questions using GC filter options and keep sources
1) GMAT Prep Classic
2) GMAT Prep focus (with the knowledge that these might be questions from official GMAT Mock tests)
3) Kaplan
4) Manhattan
do NOT go beyond them and I guess you will have plenty of good practice
