Took the GMAT last Saturday and I'm not sure what to make of my results vis-a-vis the schools I'm applying to (Chicago Booth and Michigan). Here are the results (official and in remarkably quick time):
Quant: 43 (65 percentile)
Verbal: 42 (95 percentile)
Total: 710 (92 percentile)
AWA: 6.0 (91 percentile)
Undergrad GPA 3.30, but in my major (which I switched into junior year from chemical engineering), it's more like 3.8.
Grad school GPA (M.A.): 3.22
Law school GPA (top 25 school): 3.67
Thirteen years experience as an attorney in private practice, including five as a firm partner.
I'm not happy with the quant, but considering that I haven't been professionally called upon to do math for close to twenty years, I'm not surprised by the result. (I actually started panicking about time with about 7 questions out of 37 left to go, so those 7 were answered more or less by random guessing - I had no time to read the problems.)
Am I totally out of the running? Thanks!
