Dear Friends.

I have got a moderate GMAT 640..With the kinf od acads (School topper & College gold medalist) & with exceptional work ex 7+ with consistently rated top I am confident to proceed but.......
Q49 V 28
My percentile in verbal is 50 which is making me rethink to take GMAT again..
I think scholls prefer a descent 75 percentil in both rather than having 89 in Q & 50 in V..

pls advise

Bummer! 640 is still a decent school.

However, now that you know that you need improvement in the verbal section, just review the verbal section thoroughly and retake the exam in 2 months.

I would suggest you to retake the exam.

Its a once in a life time thing and you should aim for the best possible school you can get into. With your profile, the only hurdle to getting into a top 10/15 school will be your gmat (unless you screw up your essays)

"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."
