590 What to do?

Hi.

Today i have given my GMAT and got a 590 Q48 and V24. I am planning to apply for colleges in singapore i.e. NUS,SMU and Nanyang. Do i stand any chances?

My GPA is 3.4 and have a experience of 2.5 yrs and by the time i will join a B school i will be completing 3 yrs. Extra curricular is OK.

Kindly help

Hi and thanks for your note. A 590 was obviously not what you were shooting for but --given how strong your quant skills are (based on your high quant score)-- the verbal may not matter as much.

I specialize in US schools so I'm afraid I don't really know the schools that you are asking about.

Keep me in the loop about your thinking and let me know if you have any more questions.

With a 590...probably those that are ranked 20-40; but, more generally, you could probably shoot for a school w/ an average GMAT of about 650, though I would not focus exclusively on those schools, of course.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
