My GMAT score is 700 Q48 V37 IR-4 AWA-5

I am applying to the MIM programs at HEC, LBS, ESSEC, and WHU. I have about 1.5 years of work experience. I don't know whether I should rewrite the GMAT as soon as I can (i.e., after a month). The average scores for MIM at these universities are in the 700-720 range. I know that if I rewrite the exam I can perform slightly better at least, since I developed a bad headache halfway through the exam which ruined my verbal and IR sections, but I don't know whether it will be worth the while, as i will definitely miss the first round application deadline if I don't apply soon.

Hello animanthakur :wave:


At HEC MIM program median GMAT is 710.

At LBS to my surprise average GMAT is 681, great news I would say. ;)

I would choose LBS before HEC any time, but those are just my preferences :cool:

I don't see ESSEC stating GMAT requirements, which is a good thing.

WHU would like to see GMAT score of at least 600 :)


Bottom line there is no 700-720 range for averages of these schools.

IR section is not that important anyway to admission committee compared to verbal and quant sections, so you are set.

Spending time on other aspects of your application and applying in first round, should be your priority. :idea:

Your GMAT score is just fine for all schools on list and any in Europe for that matter.


Good Luck with application and keep us posted ! :fingers_crossed: :cool:

I would only retake it if it won't put your ability to hit the application deadlines at risk. Another option would be to go ahead & apply without retaking it & then take it again as soon as you submit your apps - you can always send an updated score to the schools. And it does sound like you have a good shot at increasing your score given what you described re test day. Good luck to you!
