710 ,49 Q/ 35 V and AWA 5.5 , confused if it's good enough??

Hi Guys, i'm quite new with this forum. I have petroleum engineering background and currently working for national oil company as an strategic planner here in Thailand. I do really wanna pursue MBA program in one of the top business school to enhance my skills in business. I have a strong-willed to lead my state-owned company to worldclass standards. Hehe, acytually I might be the first person who have technical background and need to pursue MBA in the company.

Anyway, just a bit confused if this score is good enough for those schools. Should I retake the exam??

Hi kaweewut,

Your GMAT score is absolutely within the range of any top business school. Instead of retaking the test, I recommend you now spend your time developing a quality application that really makes you stand out.

You're score is fine. Now concentrate on the rest of the apps. And as long as you have good Quant score, don't bother about a relatively low Verbal score. Good luck.

Hey kaweewut,
That's a good score for all top B-schools. As long as your rest of the application is stellar, you can have a best shot. And congratulations for beating the GMAT :)
