Looking for some help from those who know:
I just got a 730 - 47Q, 42V. 96th percentile. I got 760 on both on my GMATPrep exams, so I am slightly disappointed. I had had the attitude (right or wrong) that a 99th percentile score would all but guarantee me a spot in a top 5 program. I had a 3.76 GPA from a good undergrad school. Is that, with my 730, a good bet to get into the top schools? I appreciate the insight. I know I am in the ballpark, but should I feel extremely satisfied, just satisfied, or disappointed. Also, should I think about taking the exam again?
Finally, I will not be applying to BSchool for another couple of years (I just finished undergrad and am starting my first job next week!). Are there things that are commonly suggested to prospective candidates to do in the years leading up to the BSchool application process that can help bolster an application? Any general advice here is, of course, very appreciated.
Thanks - just looking for a little perspective.
