Hi,
I was gearing up for applying in round 2!
Took my second GMAT today with the devastating score of 580. I was consistently scoring 670- 690 in practice tests.
Schools I was looking at - Duke, Darden, Ross, HAAS, Tepper.
I have already written my essays for Duke, Darden and HAAS. But now i don't know if i should apply this year at all. I have read that GMAT is just a part of the application. My profile as follows
Education- Engineering from India, followed my masters in Engineering Business Management from Warwick.
Professional - Teach for India fellow, followed by working in a microfinance for schools, now working for a foundation to implement a nationwide science program in rural India.
Goals post MBA - Going into managing charter schools, followed by opening own schools.
Does my profile hold value besides my GMAT score? or should I wait for R1 next year?
