I scored a 700 on my GMAT (Q49, V35). I have 3.5 years of work ex and 4 GPA and my target school is ISB Hyderabad. Should i retake the GMAT to increase my chances?

Hi Ashmita, 700 is a good score and close to the average of ISB. you should focus on your profile and make it a balanced profile from all aspects. Leadership experience, volunteering, awards, extracurricular and achievements should be what you must focus on. High GMAT does not guarantee admission, but a 700 coupled with a strong profile is definitely what will make your profile outstanding.

Ashmita310:
Do you think retaking the exam would be worth your time? If you felt you left questions on the table and giving yourself another shot would potentially bump your score up 20 points, why not? If you feel you have to put in significant prep work, that could be worth it as well depending on what else you have going on. Your verbal section could definitely be better, and because the GMAT rewards balance in both components, if you do even marginally better on the Verbal section it will have a disproportionate effect on your overall score.
I agree with the previous post that focusing on elements of your application would help, but if you can give yourself one more opportunity to increase your score, I see little downside. It'll all depend on the opportunity cost of your time.
Good luck,
Admissionado
