Hi,
I just gave my GMAT y'day and scored a not so good 640 (V33, Q46). I goofed up the RC section ( I know I am terrible at that). Not sure if I should re-take. Thinking to give a shot (inspired by a lot of low score yet got a good college stories) and apply for the following courses (and if doesn't work out will retake working on my RC). Request to help me understand my chances.
ESSEC - MBA in international luxury brand management
