Hi, well, GMAT is just one factor...
We have had candidates get into LBS also with a 640 and a 660 (myself included)
Why dont you send me your CV / GMAT split and shcool wish list to [email protected] and I will try to suggest what to do...

(although, LBS, has this year, only three rounds, and usually the last round has fewer chances, so my suggestion will probably be take the GMAT again and apply in R2)

All schools have scholarships. GMAT is indeed a big factor in scholarships. I know nothing about you, but 710 is not that high for an Indian enineer, hense, your chances are probably not great to get a shcolarship (again, I know nothing about you. maybe you have amazing story, diversity or hobby)

Welcome back, ARINGO
THANKS!!! We are biting our nails in anticipation for R1 decisions...

OF course. being a reapp has a direct impact on your acceptance chances. Business shcools will look at your previous application, and your new one, and will ask What has changed...
no changes? not good!
What can change? GMAT or professional advancmeent for exmaple...

THANKS! I can ask and answer questions
Q: How many schools should I apply t?
A: There is no number. But I always suggest applying to your dream schools, as well as 1-3 safer schools...

A few years ago, it was around 30%. very similar to R1...
Naturally, they also have early action, so R2 is less good, BUT, they have spaces :) if you write a good application, you have a good chance (unlike R3, where the chances are much lower)

Definitely mention this ... (it is silly to write in an Oxford essay you want to work in New York), but keep in mind, that schools are "afraid" of candidates who say out loud, they want the MBA to immigrate. They are worried you wont find a job in their country, so discuss a plan b as well or a long-term plan to return to yoru country
