Took the GMAT on Monday - 510 (Q31) (V29) - The Beat The GMAT Forum

I'm looking to get into a school requiring a min 500. Think it's good enough or am I destined to retake the GMAT? The school also requires a min 3.0 gpa and I have a 3.37. I expected somewhere in the 600's but froze up on quant.

If the school you're seeking requires a minimum 500 to attend, then it looks like you're in good shape. Your GPA appears to exceed the required minimum too.

If the other elements of your application (work experience, essays, recos) seem pretty solid, then you may want to just stick with what you have.

Good luck, and let us know what you decide!

Thanks! I started worrying that my application may not be competitive enough even though I'm above the requirements. I'll keep my hopes up. I also just found out that I received a 5 on the AWA. I was hoping that might help my application but I hear most schools don't care much as long as you get a 4 or better.

"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."
