Hi,
So I took the plunge last week and got a 690. Unfortunately, this is a bit lower than my practice tests which were around 710-720. Here is my breakdown:
Q47, V38, IR8, AWA Expecting between 5-6
Q47 is the best I've done on quant. However, my verbal was weak as I'm normally around 40-42 and really screwed up timing during this section.
I know this is difficult but given the rest of my profile, should I retake the GMAT and try to break 700? Or is the time better spent on apps?
- 27 year old male, native English speaker
- GPA: 3.24 from a top 25 school (had some setbacks during my junior and senior years but did well in quant heavy courses). Was premed and economics major.
- Work experience: 5 years. Currently, I am a management consultant and will be receiving sponsorship from my firm.
- Good leadership and management experiences
- Expecting solid recommendation letters
- Started a volunteer organization in college but have not had much time for community service since then
- Target schools: Fuqua, Sloan, Kellogg, Ross, Haas, Stanford
What do you think? Any feedback would be much appreciated!

"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."
