Gmat 4 times ( highest score 580) LOST

by bobdylan » Wed Dec 05, 2012 7:22 am
Hello experts! I'm writing this because I really need some advice.
I just got back from my fourth Gmat attempt with a score of 560( Q 41 /V 28, 50% overall). Before this attempt, I got my highest score on June with a 580 ( Q 35 /V 34).
My targets are Iese,Esade, HEC- Paris and Erasmus Rotterdam. Esade is my number one choice, since I live at Barcelona. So I'm completely lost on what should I do. In June, I applied on the last round only for Esade with a 580, got interviewed, but wasn't accepted. So now I don't know if I should apply now and try my chances or try the Gmat one last time. My Gmat scores are 450, 510, 580 and 560.
Please, give me some light!!!
Thanks.

Honestly, most schools will discount an outlier score after 5 attempts. Probably best to try the applications
