Hi

I appeared for my GMAT for the third time and scored 660 . I was planning to apply in these colleges
ISB, NUS, NTS , Rotman, XLRI
Profile details are:
Indian female with 5 years of work exp in IT industry B.Tech. 71%
12th 89%
10th 92%

1)My concern is that I am not sure that whether I will be able to get through any of the above mentioned?

2) shall I try once more for exam?

3) Any colleges parallel to these in terms of ranking, exposure, outcome and financials where I can apply?

Posted from my mobile device

Hi srtas

1. Please provide more details on your employer, work responsibilities and achievements, and ECA, to enable an assessment.
2. Yes, you should. 660 may not be enough at these schools. Aim for 700+.
3. In India, the IIM executive (full-time) programs are options, but even for those, a higher GMAT score would be required.

Hi stars,

Even I'm in the same scenario, gmat 3rd attempt 630, however ISB demands a 700 atleast.
SP Jain could ne another option to look for but I'm not sure of the placement scenario there.
Nevertheless, retaking gmat..(these are business schools afterall, and they establish the brand names through our scores and eventual capabilities and placements)

#Never to give up

Hi nayakr1127

Yes, try for 680+ to be competitive at ISB.....of course, the higher the better.
