Hi there, it would be great to get a realistic evaluation of my profile for the top US MBA programs. Would you recommend to retake the GMAT and apply in R3 instead or rather giving it a try with the current score? (No more test possible before deadline for R2)
I am a MBB sponsored applicant, so scholarships are either not possible or not a priority at least.
Demographics: 27 years old, male, German
Academics: Business Informatics - Bachelor (3.4 converted GPA), Finance/Data Science - Master (3.8 converted GPA)
GMAT 680 (Q48, V34, IR8, AWA6) -> my probably biggest weakness as I ruined it with verbal (no more time for another attempt for round 2).
Work experience: >5 years for a large US tech company in various roles, parallel to my university degrees. Currently, MBB consultant with digital focus across wide variety of industries (will be 2 years at the beginning of the MBA)
International experience: Semester abroad in the US (smaller university in California) + 3.5 months internship in other European country
Extracurricular: Member of a global diversity board at former employer, voluntary licensed referee for youth and children teams in popular sport, team captain and treasurer of sports team (+ some voluntary roles in Highschool and college)
My dream is still to get into the absolute top schools in the US and I also consider LBS and Oxford/Said. I am fully aware that my GMAT score is far from ideal. Would be great to get your expert view on this.
Many thanks!

If I were you, I would give a try to Oxford and LBS without hesitation and work to fine tune other areas of application other than GMAT.
Depending on your post MBA goal you could also consider INSEAD, IESE, SDA Bocconi, HEC-Paris etc...,
Going into the US could also be possible albeit quite challenging for the absolute top tier.
Cheers
