Hi Lisa,
I'm currently applying to Haas, Columbia and Wharton with a view to specializing in Real Estate.
While I appreciate the GMAT isn't the be all and end all, I'd really appreciate your advice. I just sat the GMAT and scored 670 which was pretty disappointing but, even worse, it's horribly skewed. I scored 45 in the verbal (98%) and just 36 in the quantitative (46%). Not quite sure what happened with the quant section but I'm really keen to apply for this sitting and re-taking isn't really option.
Obviously this isn't great, but I'd appreciate your views on whether it's still realistic to apply to these schools with that sort of score.
In terms of other academics, I got the equivalent of GPA 4.0 in both my undergraduate and post graduate degree (the post grad included several finance and corp finance electives) from top UK colleges. I also have 3 years of work experience in Real Estate, 2 of which have involved daily quantitative skills.
Is there any way this quants score will be seen a "blip" or do you think it's more problematic?
Thanks very much for any help,
Bertie
