This will be my second time taking the GMAT. I know that this site is set up for people getting into the MBA but I am actually already an MBA student at UNM and my unimpressive, almost embarassing, 570 was enough to get in.
However, I am now looking at doctoral universities (Purdue specifically) and that 570 doesn't look so hot. So I am retaking the GMAT, I hired a tutor and took some classes on GMAT strategies, the test is 6 weeks away and I am not sure of how well I am going to do on it.
Does anyone know how important GMAT scores are to PHD schools? My CV is farily impressive. I have a very high GPA, I currently hold an academic position coordinating the SBI at my university, some of my research is currently under review and hopefully will soon be published, but is it enough?
I know that UNM is not a big ten school, but if I want to get into a big 10 school how much do I have to impress the admissions office? Will being a big fish in a small pond (no offense to UNM) cut it for an upper tier school? Any advice or suggestions?

Does a potential applicant also need a publication or two in the area of study? Would it help if the publication were to be in an area which is allied and is not directly related too?
Thanks!
Thanks!
