Guys,
I attempted GMAT yesterday and scored 690 (V-32, Q-50). I am neither happy nor sad, but a bit confused. I have read some threads in club that if the difference in your quant and verbal score is big, it may affect your admission call.
I targeted 700, but missed the magic score by 10 points. I am not sure if I need to re-take the exam.
Below is my performance in recent exams order by the date attempted.
MGMAT CAT1 - 620( V-29, Q-47) ( Jan 25, 2012)
MGMAT CAT2 - 620( V-32, Q-43) ( Feb 12, 2012)
GMATprepv1(1) -640 ( V-26, Q50) (Feb 26, 2012)
KNEWTON - 650 ( V-33, Q-46) (Mar 18, 2012)
GMATprepv1(2) -720( V-38, Q-50) (Mar 25, 2012)
MGMAT CAT3 - 730( V-40, Q-49) (April 1, 2012) ( Verbal score is inflated as I encountered 2 already attempted RCs)
MGMAT CAT4 - 690( V-34, Q-51) (April 8, 2012)
MGMAT CAT5 - 670( V-33, Q-49) (April 11, 2012)
GMATprepv2 - 700(V-33, Q-50) (April 15, 2012)
GMAT experience:
Quantitative section went fine, as I was comfortable with this section. In verbal section I was doing good till question #22, but then after 4-5 questions I realized that I was running out of time and hence had to skip 3-4 questions (not in a row).
Because of financial constraints, I am not targeting any US university. I have chosen the below five universities in the GMAT exam.
Indian school of business
The university of Hongkong
National university of Singapore
International University of Japan
Schulich school of business ( India course)
Please advise.

I am in the same boat scoring 690 and was aiming for 700. I told myself I was fine with it but 18 months later I convinced myself to retake.
My V was 90% but my Q was 70% so I will retake to bring the Q up.
For the schools that you are targeting did you check the average accepted GMAT scores? Accept for Indian school of business I believe the other schools have an average around 650 range which makes your 690 fine.

Thanks buddy, I think only ISB is a concern with this score, as for ISB applicants' average score is close to 706. And the drawback is I am Indian IT male with 7 years of experience. Tough competition among IT profiles is for sure.
