At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Hey Everyone,
So I took the GMAT on Friday and came back with a 42 Quant (50%) and 42 Verbal (96%) for a combined 690 (86%). While this is an overall good score, I was hoping to break 700 and had taken a GMATPrep test the week before that put me at 47Q/40V and a 710. While I obviously under performed on Quant, I also scored higher than any practice test I ever did on Verbal. What I am wondering is how important is it for adcoms to see similar percentiles for each category? I am planning on applying to some top 10-15 schools and I'm worried that the combo of right below average with a low Quant score will automatically eliminate me before they get the chance to look at my actual application/work experience which I think will be my strongest part. That being said - I am also concerned about retaking the GMAT and possibly getting a lower score. This was my second time taking the GMAT in 20 days - first time I kinda freaked out on the pacing and got a 37/38 which I promptly canceled.
For background, I am not a strong math student but I do have two A's in college level Calc and Stats. Also, I am 24 - 3 years of work experience in product management and product marketing for 2 of the largest SaaS companies - specifically MarTech.
Any advice would be helpful.
Thanks!

Missed this in your other thread. Getting "balanced" scores is (generally) not important. That said, some programs do look for good scores in quant, and a Q42 won't help there. You'll have to get a higher score or include other evidence that shows that you're good at quant in your application. Are there any schools that you are particularly interested in? You should ask them directly whether a Q42 is going to hold you back.

Hi digthelongball,
You're ultimately asking Admissions questions, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and the Schools that you plan to apply to. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
