I practised for around 2 months. My aim was to get a 700+score.
Screwed up in Verbal.
My scores:
Gmat Prep 1-550
Veritas 680.
MGMAT 600
Gmat Prep 2 -610
Gmat Prep 1 -660
(RESET)
(06-11-2014)Actual GMAT : 530 Q47 V17 AWA-5 IR-3
I don`t know what happened in the actual gmat. But, one thing is for sure, actual gmat is way different than the mocks. I always struggle in verbal but, my quants is good. In quants i was always getting 49 or 50.
But, in the actual gmat everything was screwed-up. In fact, at the gmat centre, I was the one who got the highest score on that day
. There were 6 candidates and everyone got in between 400-480 (As said by the instructor, he didn`t reveal others score)
I was really surprised. Is there any chance that one a particular day the questions are really on a tougher side??
My profile:
X- 78.4
XII- 76
B.Tech IT from VIT-Vellore - 8.91 CGPA
4.7years of work ex. First 2yrs in Infosys as a system engineer. After that I have joined my family Business, working as an MD.
Good leadership qualities. Handling all the functions of the company, such as finance,marketing, HR,Operations. Organized state level and national level, dealers and carpenters meet.
Apart from that, I have completed the courses like introduction to finance, introduction to marketing and introduction to operation management from University of Pennsylvania, Wharton college through coursera . I have got a distinction in introduction to operation management and above 85% in other two courses.
I am also the manager and lead vocalist of a band-Bloodbath.Blood Bath is a band from India,Genre - Alternative rock , Grunge & Heavy metals. \m/
We have performed in IIT , NIT, Xaviers college,BIT, Amusement Parks and other open shows. Our band pictures are published in some leading newspapers like TOI, HT, Hindustan.
Now I will come to my question that in what all colleges I can apply. MBA is not an option for me its a choice and I am really interested in it.(Especially marketing)
I am planning to apply for ISB hyd, NUS, SMU, Nanyang, CBU(Denmark).
Wharton was my favourite but at this score it will be a waste of money.
I know I have to study hard for another 2-3 months to get a decent score in Gmat and then apply for fall 2016.
But, I want to apply for 2015 mba.
Please suggest some colleges.
I know the chances are improbable, but not impossible.

Gautam

I think I'm reading my own story.
I got 530 also in the GMAT, two days ago. Although I thought I did pretty good in the exam and my CATs were around 650. I'm still healing from the shock right now.
Please let me know how your plans went, It will be extremely helpful.
Thank you in advance

Hi Pauloesc,
I know its really very tough to accept a score of 530, I was also shattered but we have to look forward. What I did is I searched for the colleges which are accepting 80% mid range of 550-650 scores. If you have a good profile then you can apply to these colleges. I have prepared an excel sheet of "colleges to apply" which can be helpful for you.
PFA the excel sheet.
