Hi,
I took the GMAT today and ended up with a score of 660 ( Q50, V29).My target was 700+, but Verbal betrayed me!
Anyways, as I want to apply for round 2 for Fall 2012, I decided to go ahead with this score (Because if I take the GMAT again, then I will fall in the pool of students for round 3, which I guess might be risky).

Well, I would like apply for schools like Booth, Tuck, Kellogg,Columbia. I know that I am sounding much optimistic, but would like to have your advice whether it would be a correct decision to go ahead and apply in these schools.
I am from India,and I have a total of 9.5 years of experience in Software industry working as Software Engineer/Lead.
GPA : 3.2

Please advice. Also if possible, could you please send me a list of good Universities where I can apply with this score?I am open to Canada, Singapore, and if needed, European countries as well

Thanks !

Hi,

Hi with your score unfortunately your desired schools will difficult to reach. However like you said you are open to other countries we would advise you go the school profiles and see which school fits your criteria- rural/urban, faculty, placement etc.

Thanks!

To be totally honest, with a 660 and and Indian Tech background, and a 3.2 your chances would be very very slim indeed.
Si if you really want to make it this year, you will likely need to compromise on the schools. Or wait, and retake.

"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."
