Hello Experts,
I need a bit of advice on which colleges to apply at with my GMAT score of 690 and 9 years of work experience in the software industry. I'm an Electronics Engineer by education.
[I was hoping for a higher score but couldn't score on the verbal section as per my expectations.
(Q - 49 and V - 35, Percentile 88) ]

Regards,
SK

Hi,

Considering the your length of your experience,( ie, your age group), you might want to explore the Executive MBA programs and part-time programs.

Thanks Raj but the problem is that to do an executive MBA from the institutes abroad, I would need to be employed there too..that's not the situation. So I am looking for full time MBAs only.

That being the case 2 viable options are
1. Apply for Full-time programs. Many of the respected programs do are looking for your demographics, it will help your cause to have extra-curricular activities in addition to your score.
2.Fly to executive MBA classes alternate weeks(closer to your homeland); I came across folks who fly in from South Korea to attend Wharton west classes, but not easy for doing that from India. Doing that in Europe is viable but can get very expensive.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
