Just got my ding from Kellogg yesterday for their part time/evening weekend MBA program. I suspect that my academics were too weak for them to consider me so I am going to try and do the GMAT for a fourth time to raise that. Would like to get your thoughts. Let me know if you see any other issues in my profile besides the academics.
GMAT(scores in chronological order): 640, 650, 600 (the downward trend to a 600 was probably an issue too I'm guessing)

Work Experience: ArcelorMittal(9 years)-4 different functional roles (Project Engineer, Reliability Engineer, Maintenance Planner, Quality Engineer)
