Hello,
Could a consultant please provide feedback on my profile with quick assessment of my chances to get into at the Wharton, Columbia, LBS, Insead & Kellogg for start in mid 2015.
I took a GMAT yesterday for the first time and got the score of 670 / 83 Percentile (Q46 & V36). Although, I am not completely disappointed with the score but I do understand that I am sitting on a weird score. Anyways, I would request for your evaluation of my profile to suggest whether I would still be a good/ competitive application (with my GMAT Score and Work Exp.) to the schools mentioned above for start in mid 2015 or whether I should go for a re-take of GMAT to improve my chances.
