I took the gmat today for second time and got worse than first time. 600(Q:48,V:25). First time I got 650(Q:50,V:27). I do not know what happened today. I never got less than 720 in any of the 4 GmatPrep practice exams (730,740,750,750). My concern is I was planning to apply for part time mba to Berkeley and UCLA. But now I don't know what to do. They say universities take the maximum score but won't a drop in score on second try look bad on my application? What should I do? I plan to give gmat one more time and I believe I need to study from ground up to master the basics before I sit for third and final time. My weak point is verbal.
Should I apply this year with these scores? Please let me know. I am clueless right now.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Sorry to hear your GMAT didn't go as well. While some difference from the mocks is expected, your variation is quite alarming. It could well be a case of nerves or some specific weaknesses.
While schools do consider the highest score, and a drop will not be a problem, the kind of schools that you are targeting will need considerably higher scores than your highest score. Honestly, you should give your GMAT once again and try to improve considerably. Verbal can be daunting for non natives, and this is where we can help you improve your GMAT and subsequently submit a competitive application as well.
Get in touch if you need any help with the entire application process!"
Cheers!
