At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Hello everyone. I took yesterday the gmat for the third time and I scored 610. 46 in quant and only 28 in verbal. I am planning to retake it in 2 weeks after revising the verbal section. However, I feel mentally exhausted after this experience and I am not motivated to study very hard for the upcoming days. If my score doesn't grow any more on my fourth attempt, can you please recommend me which B schools will accept a candidate like me?
I am 24 now, coming from international hospitality and events management background, graduated first class honors. Aside from that, I've done three internships: London, Nashville USA, and Dubai, all hotel management related. I speak three languages. Would I have a slight chance to get accepted into LBS for the masters in management?

Unfortunately, there is no shortcut. You may have to have study plan for at least 2 months for verbal to increase your score. Start with sentence correction and know the "GMAT" grammar rules thoroughly.

Hi RazvanTug,
The process of applying to (and ultimately attending) Business School will require a big investment of time, money and energy on your part, so you really should make sure that the Programs that you apply to match your career goals/needs. There are a variety of factors that go into selecting the Schools that you'll apply to. Instead of just applying to Programs in which you might have a good chance to 'get in', here are some other things to think about:
1) Is there a particular company that you want to work for or industry that you want to work in? Certain degrees are more appropriate than others if you have a specific career goal.
2) What do you want your MBA to do for you?
3) Do you want to go to School full-time or part-time?
4) Are you willing to relocate? Are you comfortable with working through a program that is primarily online?
5) Are you going to be applying for scholarships?
Etc.
It's okay if you don't have answers to any of these questions just yet, but you really should try to define all of the important variables in terms of your goals, so that you can tailor your entire approach to getting into the best School that matches what you're looking for.
While I completely understand that you might be tired of studying for the GMAT (and you might just want all of this to "be over"), you shouldn't necessarily rush back in to retake the GMAT again - especially if you have gotten "stuck" at this particular scoring level.
1) On what dates did you take EACH of your Official GMATs and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
2) How long have you studied in total? For this most recent attempt, how many hours did you typically study each week?
3) What study materials have you used over the course of ALL of your studies? What “brands” of CATs/mocks have you used?
4) On what dates (or approximate dates) did you take EACH of your CATs/mocks and how did you score on EACH (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores for EACH)?
If you took your recent Official GMAT at a Test Center, then you might also choose to purchase the Enhanced Score Report. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what went wrong on Test Day (and what you should work on to score higher). If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.
