I applied to IESE B-School and got admitted with 640 GMAT. I have just retaken my GMAT and got 710.
This has put me in a fix, earlier I only applied to one B-School as I thought I do not stand any chance in LBS and Top US B-Schools. Luckily, I got an admit from IESE.
I am pretty much open to work in both New York and London/EU. Now, I want to give it a crack for M7 next year, but at the same time I have asked IESE to consider my case for scholarship with higher GMAT.
