Hi...Need some advice

by vinayakdl » Mon Sep 28, 2009 11:58 am
Hi,

I am looking at applying to top 5 schools. It will be great if you can take a look at my profile and provide feedback. I would really appreciate. I was expecting a lot more on my GMAT but had a bad day and want to know if it is worth trying again.

Nationality: India
Masters from Purdue: 3.63/4.00
Total Exp: 6years

GMAT: 710 Q49(87) V37(80)

Age: 28

Work Experience:
1+ in manufacturing in India
2+ in IT in india
3+ in Financial Services in India

More: I have a very compelling personal story and was wondering how much impact that makes.

I know if i study more and try again can score 750+ in GMAT but want to know if this score is enough to get me into Kellogg? I would really appreciate your help.

Vinayak

At this point in time and assuming that your undergrad grades were good, I recommend you apply with your current score. Many applicants to Kellogg are accepted with this score and a 750 doesn't guarantee your acceptance either. For now, invest in your essays and the other application elements.

A compelling personal story can make a difference if told well.

Best,
