Hi All,
Today was my D day, and I feel I wasted a chance.I had studied for nearly 3 months.Resources : GMATPREP/E-gmat/Magoosh/ and various other books.
I got 680(q-49,V-32, Ir-3, AWA(expected 5). This was my second attempt. Gmat1( 590)- poor.My GPA is 3.3.
Work Exp - 5 years (IT industry)I have served multiple roles during my short career(Developer, Sr Developer, Team Lead).
I have been strong at Curricular activities (Runners up at Dist level Badminton, Winner in University level Badminton including singles/Mixed doubles/Doubles, Won many atheletic events) I have also been active in Debates/Mad ad/Dramatics.
To be honest, my mocks told me that I would be getting something between 650-700. I wanted to break the barrier but Verbal again let me down.I am targeting ISB, IIM A, Rotman, GWU, Tepper. Are these colleges above the league? Should i give another try?What grade of colleges can i expect? can someone name a few so that I can make up my mind.
Gmat Masters, please help me.
Regards,Souvilibra

Souvilibra,
You don't necessarily need to take the GMAT again to have a decent shot at most of those programs. Since you have taken it twice, you may be better off putting the effort into the rest of the application and ensuring it is perfect. While you won't have the highest score of the class, you are certainly in the range. You can do a better job improving your overall profile if your story is very strong and the essays and letters of recommendation are powerful.
While I don't have a complete picture of your background (for instance what extra-curriculars have you done since college and how do they fit with your overall story and interests?), if you do everything else right you could certainly get into those programs.
Reach out if you want help putting together a great application. [email protected]
Good luck!

Souvilibra,
If you are part of the celebrated Indian IT gang - you might not have a good shot at these schools now. To be fair - I think you should definitely apply to these schools - a lot does depend on the rest of your profile. But it is going to be competitive. Schools outside the top 25 US and their equivalents might be easier.

Karthik
