Hey dude,
You have a super interesting profile. Mexican/Spanish, with work in Germany! That's a rare bit of experience indeed.

And I'd love to hear about the rest of your profile, including your volunteer work, schooling, extra curricualrs, etc.


However, if you are aiming for Top 10 schools alone, I would highly suggest retaking the GMAT, and I'm not sure that 30 points more will be enough (rather breaking a 700 is recommended). Anyhow, you are going to do the best you can, so you can cross that bridge when you come to it. But lemme just say that you go to B-school only once, and you don't want to apply with any score less than the absolute maximum that you can pull.

when's your retake?

Best,
JF

Im thinking fo taking the GMAT first week August and start applying in mid September at the latest. (ED probably) Looking at my error log its clear where I can improve..

Ive volunteered (Not recently) as online teacher for a program that gives high school diplomas for free and an organization that teaches on saturday business values and encourgaes kids in public schools to be more entrepreneuer.
Play Soccer, used to play Tennis
Have some extra courses in Project Management, Dale Carnegie Institute and some other local certifications...

Greetingss ADC

Allrighty then,
Let me know how you do, but like I said, don't rush that decision. It's better for you to go to a Tier 1 school with a 710 GMAT next year, than to go to a Tier 2 school with a 670 this year.

Best of luck, and kill that GMAT!
:)

Best,
JF
