Hi,

Just wanted some feedback on my scores....

A brief background about myself: I am 30 years of age and have got an MBA from a top 5 B-school in India. I am currently working in on the Advisory side of what is known as the Big 4. I have an overall experience of around 6 years experience post MBA (none before MBA).

I got a 640 on my first attempt (47,34) but would be fair to say that I underestimated the test, took practice tests only the week before the final day.

I took my second attempt today and managed a 700

Q: 50 (Percentile 93%)
V: 34 (Percentile 68%)

I am planning to apply only to INSEAD and maybe IMD, Switzerland. The primary objective is to get through Booz, BCG etc else I am not too keen.

I want to know if my Verbal scores could act as a dealbreaker for me. I am not very keen to take the exam again, but will if have to, was hoping for some feedback from some people here.

My Prep scores

GMAT Prep 1: 700 (3 weeks ago) (Scores: Q49, V34)
GMAT Prep 1: 710 (3 weeks ago) (Scores: Q48, V40)

MGMAT CAT 1: 680 (Scores: Q49, V34)
MGMAT CAT 2: 710 (Scores: Q48, V38)
MGMAT CAT 3: 730 (Scores: Q48, V42)
MGMAT CAT 4: 690 (Scores: Q50, V34)

Anways, I wish I had come across LSAT RCs and CRs earlier, might have helped and SC was kind of the same, could just hope for the best.

Dear albeitmaybe,

Before you invest more resources, you need to determine if you are eligible for either INSEAD and IMD with your current MBA degree. Most business schools do not allow folks who already hold the degree to apply and earn the same degree again. If the school does not view your MBA as equivalent to its MBA, then you might be eligible to apply--but you need to find out first. If you have already researched that question and are eligible, then I don't think your verbal score is a dealbreaker. However, it is imperative that your essays and interview are stellar and demonstrate your verbal abilities and English proficiency. Likewise, if you take the TOEFL, you will want to score high on it to show your proficiency. In essence, you want to make your verbal score the only potential weakness in your application. Your admission decision will be based on the entire application, so make it hard for the admissions committee to pass on your's.

Good luck,
Lisa
