Disha4s
I am planning to take the gmat in January and thinking of applying in R2/R3 for most schools.
Is applying for the 2025 intake in those rounds worth a shot?
Hey Disha4s , I hope you are doiong well.

So, R2 is absolutely worth a shot if you can prepare a strong application by the deadline. R2 is still competitive but has more than a few seats available, so if your GMAT score, essays, and overall profile are ready and looks impactful you might have a good chance. However, applying in R3 can be more challenging, especially for international candidates or those targeting highly competitive schools. By this round, many schools have limited spots left. Good luck!

Hi everyone,

I would really appreciate some advice on improving study efficiency. Since my GPA for my bachelor’s degree was quite good, I only need a GMAT Focus score of around 605 to have a strong chance of getting into my target school.

In my initial practice tests, I performed above average in Verbal but slightly below the mean in both Quant and Data Insights. As a result, I’ve been focusing almost exclusively on Quant. However, I’m running into a bit of a time crunch. My progress in Quant has been slower than I hoped, and I still struggle significantly with the harder questions.

I need to write the exam within the next month and a half at the latest because I’ll be starting a full-time internship afterward, which will be very demanding in terms of time.

Does anyone have advice on what to prioritize during my preparation or recommendations for resources that could help me achieve a moderate score like 605?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thank you for the response. Is medium considered to be within the range of 605-655 in the question bank?
