Fellas!
Took GMAT today and scored a 690. Not sure if i should be happy as i was aiming for a score above 700.Breakup of the score is -
Quant-48
verbal-37(disappointing)
It took me 2 and a half months of regular studies to get this score.I referred to
OG 12
manhattan Geometry,number properties, equations inequalities and vics
GMAT verbal review
primarily for Quant and verbal.
lots of mock tests, which include
1.MGMAT
670,
680,
710(after rsetting)
2.GMAT prep
670
680
700(reset)
710(reset)
760(reset)
One thing which i would like to share with all is Quant is NOT tougher than before! It is exactly of the same standard as GMAT prep tests.I found verbal quite tough though, with very lenghty passages in RC and difficult SC. However, verbal has never been my stong section, hence i wouldn't comment on its difficulty level. I would suggest people to focus on your weak areas. You will get to know it after you have written a few mocks.
I am a male candidate with 5 years of experience with an investemnt bank.I was working in london previously and now out of Singapore(good international exposure).
Is it advisable to apply in 2nd rounds of schools such as
ISB india
Insead Singapore
GSB singapore
Oxford UK
Cambridge UK
As of now, i am not really thinking of retaking the test..Is that something i should consider?
