Hello Gmat Club,
I wanted to take an advice on B-School Applications for R2. This was my 4th attempt (600,610,650,690). I have done everything i could do to increase my verbal score but unfortunately it is not happening. I have decided to conclude my GMAT prep journey now. It will be not fair on me if i keep investing more energy, emotions & money on the prep. I wanted your help to guide me on my next steps. Should i apply for schools in R2. If yes, what should be my target schools as per the GMAT score and my profile. Sharing my profile and entire GMAT journey below: -
In my 3rd attempt (650 - Q50,V28), i thought i will give it a shot in R3 and i applied to 4 schools
1. UCSD - Rady School of Management: I received an admission offer from UCSD with a $65,000 scholarship, but i skipped it.
2. Georgetown University - McDonough School of Business: I received a waitlist decision letter at first then got denial letter
3. McCombs School of Business: I received a denial decision letter.
4. USC Marshall: I received a denial decision letter.
My profile : - I am from India, a male engineer who graduated in 2018 from IIT Delhi. I have a total of 5+ years of experience (age 28) . I have worked with Deloitte, upGrad and few other indian startups some of which are unicorns now. Over the past 5 years of my professional career, I have successfully conceptualized and launched multiple products from 0 to 1 catering to different target-audiences. My invaluable experience and skills in New Product Development, Project Management, Strategy & Operations and most important making data-driven decisions have helped me in becoming a collaborative team leader. I have led expansion of products & services in both domestic & international markets. I am concerned about the placements prospects post my MBA from the schools i will be applying at 690 score. Also i am very keen to start my MBA journey in 2024.
Let me know what are your thoughts.

A score of 690 is definite not a deal breaker. And congratulations on your perseverance. You should go forth in R2 with an engaging application with a thrust on excellent essays and LORs. A detailed profile evaluation would help select schools in a better manner. Do DM for detailed discussion. All the best.

Be proud of yourself for increasing your score to where you made it - a 690 is a great score even if it isn't quite a 700.
The schools on your list are very appropriate for your profile and new score. The additional 40 points from a 650 to a 690 is significant. Give it a shot. Perhaps also add a couple of schools that you didn't apply to last time around that might be of interest? Reapplicants often times have success, but the process is admittedly not as straightforward as it is for first time applicants.
