So, this is my first post on here.
I just took the GMAT today and got a 580 (Quant: 29, Verbal: 40). I am certainly not very good at math on these standardized tests. In real life, though, I am a CPA working at an investment bank. I am actually unusual for this board - I am solid on verbal, but poor on quant.
This was the 2nd time I took the GMAT (the first time I took it in August, I got a 520 (Q: 30 V:31).
Does anyone here think I should take the test again in November? I would really appreciate any opinions that you could provide. Do I have any kind of chance of improving to a 35 on quant? Given my CPA and quality work experience, do I have any kind of a shot at a good business school. Or will the 580 basically keep me out?
So far, I have taken The Princeton Review course (absolutely useless for quantitative) and I have taken the 4 Kaplan CD tests. Every time, I run out of time on quant, and end up guessing on the last 5-10 questions (I know...really bad). The data sufficiency gets me every time.
Thanks in advance for any advice you could provide.
