Hi All,

I am an Indian IT Applicant .I am planning to apply to US and UK B Schools for fall 2011 intake. I have taken the GMAT 4 times with scores ranging from 640- 660. The Mean score for Indian applicants for my target colleges(30- 50 ranked US colleges) is around 700. So i am in a dilemma whether i should retake the GMAT and score 700+ to improve my candicacy especially considering the fact that my profile is pretty ordinary.But i am skeptic that the adcoms will view me unfavourably if i take the GMAT 5 times.So could you please let me know whether i should go for the GMAT for a 5th time.Have any of you known candidates who have made it to top B-schools after taking GMAT 5 times?

Regards
vd53

But the main issue here at it seems is whether you improve further as your last four attempts shows very minimal change in range of 20 points,
Charged up again to beat the beast :)
