Hi All,
I'm feeling a little defeated with my latest GMAT score. I just retook the GMAT for the 3rd time last week and scored a 650(Q44/V36). My previous scores for the GMAT were:
- 550 taken August of 2018 (this was just to get a feel for the GMAT as I was going into my senior year of undergrad).
- 680 (Q46/V38) taken October 2019
As some background, I have ben studying for the GMAT about 15-20 hours a week since May 2019 and seem to be plateauing on all my GMAT practice exams. I've tried Manhattan prep tutors and courses, Magoosh tutors and courses, and a lot of self studying. Below are my recent practice exams:
- 670 - March 21st - (Q45/V37) - Official prep #1
- 680 - May 25th - (Q45/V38) - Official prep #2
- 670 - June 13th - (Q48/V34) - Official prep #3 (I ran out of time i verbal and guessed the last 4 questions)
I guess my question is should I keep going? I'd like to get into a top program and I believe I have a somewhat strong profile. Do you think 680 score is good enough to get into a top program?My original goal was to get a 730 but as the months have gone I think I'd be okay with anything 700+. Below are some considerations:
- Graduated from a state school Magna Cum Laude with 3.75 GPA, degree in finance.
- Worked full-time throughout undergrad from an intern to financial analyst for a mid-size telecom company
- Currently work for a Big 4 in internal finance
- Co-founder/founder of two start-ups (neither of which have turned a profit yet, but we'll get there!)
- Ran a clothing charity in high school and replicated the same thing in college
- Recruitment chair of my fraternity for a couple of years
- English is my only language
I know my gmatclub profile looks bare but that's because I created a new one to post. My other profile has my full name in the username lol.
Any help or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

It's better if you ask your query to the admission consultants in the following link. There is a highly chance to get better response there.

One important thing: so far i know you should have better quant score (q50 at least) if you wanna get admission in top-notch university in the finance department like CBS.

Ofcourse you should man.. Just relax your mind and start afresh. You've got 680 ! That ain't no small feat.. 730 is just a few steps from there. Just relax yourself and enjoy the process. You'll get there. You didn't come this far to just quit.

You have a good profile to say no for adcom teams. However, a good GMAT score always gives a good weightage to your profile. I suggest you to give one last shot. All the best.
