(this is where I need help, I need a general sense of how far or close I am at getting into some of these schools)
· Other information relevant to your profile:
1. As my profile stands, I still find it difficult to grasp how much of an overreach it is for me to get into some of these programs. To me it's clear that HBS is an overreach, but I truly have no idea what program would be a "safety application" given my profile. I appreciate the honest feedback.
2. I am struggling to find inspiration to retake the GMAT. I am not happy with the 690, but realistically, I am not sure I will be able to take the time I took to study for those two attempts again. I know I can get 10-30 more points if I truly tried, but I do think that it's going to impact others aspects of my application which I think I need to start putting some time on. Based on my profile, is this something that would really swing the balance in case I scored say 20 more points?
3. If not covered answering Q1 and Q2, any suggested areas of focus?
