Unless you offset your weak GPA with a strong GMAT/GRE, the scores may have an adverse effect on your candidacy. You will be compared with other Indian engineers. Do bear in mind that scores are a hygiene requirement for an Indian applicant. The rest will depend on your motivations for an MBA, post-MBA career plans, the portability of your skills, etc.

Hi, do we get sectional scores in the MBA site or only total score? I could see my total score as 705, but couldn’t see sectional scores. Where can I find them?

Hi guys can anyone help with this question
If a man sells x oranges for a dollar, he loses 45 percent. By how much percentage should the man reduce his cost to make a profit of 10 percent on selling 2x oranges in a dollar?

A. 25%
B. 50%
C. 75%
D. 150%
E. 300%
if-a-man-sel ... 22816.html

I dont understand why its 1/0.55 not 1/0.45. The question says he looses 45% which means the cost price is 0.45 . Please help

ey, i got it. It’s because to make a gain of 10% u also need to recover the 45% loss. if u recover the loss u will be at no profit no loss but for 10% gain u need 45% loss recovery + 10% gain= 55% or 0.55.
I hope it helps!!

Need help in DI!!

Score of the snapshot attached- 76
Need tips to improve DI scores.
The major hurdle is time management
I'm not able to see the questions to even answer it. Because when I solve it after the mock, it seems faily doable.
Currently I spent 22 mins for 2 sets of MSR questions i.e. 7 to 8 questions.
How to overcome this?

I have tried 2 strategies till now
1. Rush through and try to give equal time to all questions.
Outcomes - Here either I do careless mistakes like not considering some tiny detail and ending up making a mistake

2. Try to get the first 15 questions right at any cost. This is what I've tried in this snapshot.
Yet the score was not upto the mark.

What else to fix or try?

I have seen a strong positive correlation on RC and MSR , TPA and CR, as your comprehending skill increases on verbal, I tend to read faster on DI. They both simultaneously shot up for me. How’s your verbal doing?

Yeah I have observed this
And my verbal is bad too
Similar range of 76 to 78
Easy to medium questions, I'll solve
Medium to difficult, is where I'm lacking
For me in verbal, retention of information is the problem
So reading faster makes it even worse
