Hi Guys,
This is my first post on this site but I have been constantly looking into all the forums especialy this forum since it is a source of inspiration for people like me.I want to Thank all you guys and also BTG for making such a wonderful site,
I just came back from my exam centre.My exam was at Chennai India.I scored 690 (Q48,V36).
Do not know its a good score or a bad score.I never got a 690 in any of the tests I gave.Following are the tests I gave:
MGMAT(free) 610
Gmat prepI(first time)630
Gmat prep II (first time) 630
GMAT prep I(second time) 610
GMAT prep II (second time) 610
Kaplan (Internet)650
Princeton(free) 650
Today i got 690 which was amazing considering my past performances but,there was a reason for my low score in tests I do not know why but i was never able to hold my patience and I always pressed panicked button.In all the exams I gave before(mock) completed QA section 40 minutes before and VA section around 30 minutes before the allocated time.But, today I do not know what happened the paper was a bit legnthy it seems
,I was able to complete both sections on time(there was a bit of panick in VA as I got 4th RC passage at Ques NO.31),But Still I managed to get a 690 (somehow).Now I do not know if this score is sufficient or not to get an admission.I have applied to following colleges:
NYU(Stern)
Darden(University of virginia)
UCLA(Andresin)
Ross(University of michigan)
MIT (Sloan).
I have not given a toefl yet so I will be applying in Aug 2009 but since MIT(Sloan) doesn not require TOEFL I think I can apply for second round.I have around 2 and a half years of experience in Indian IT industry and a have a bit of extra curricular.
I want to know applying with 690 will be ok or should i go for GMAT one more time to get 700+ score.
I also want to know what are my chances of acceptance by any of the schools I have applied for(since i think 690 is less)?
Please guide/mentor.
