Got it. Then I can see how I fourth attempt may not be worthwhile unless you're able to make a big switch to your study plans or strategy. I think most of the schools you list are still doable. Rotman and Cambridge could still be a stretch, with their averages in the high 600s, but I would still try those and the others seem like a good match for your profile.

Good luck!

Thanks Kate for sharing your feedback. I've already given the GMAT thrice, 660 being the last score. I'm not sure appearing again would change anything. What would be your advice? Given this score, would Rotman, Schulich, Cambridge (Judge), Warwick, Simon, Imperial be a stretch> Which schools besides these would you advice?

Hi NikTek, thanks for reaching out to us at mbaMission. You've got strong work experience with the finance rotations and leadership roles. You've also got a strong academic background in terms of your GPAs and exams. It also seems you have enough extracurricular activities to check that box.

What worries me is your GMAT score. I think that makes some of the schools on your list - namely LBS, INSEAD, HEC Paris - quite difficult. The other schools seem doable though. Is retaking your GMAT an option?

Thanks,
Kate
