Need suggestion and guidance

by faith07 » Tue Jan 11, 2011 11:07 pm
I appeared for GMAT in November and scored 600. I have six years of work exp in IT industry.
Considering my experience and the score do I hold any significant opportunity or reappearing for GMAT would be a wise decision.

Would part time MBA from US college be an option. If so, will part time MBA really help enhance my profile.

Please suggest.

It depends on a) what schools you're targeting at b) your overall profile c) the round of application you apply in- only a fraction of applicants who apply in R3 make get admitted because by the end of R2,schools end up filling most of the seats in their programs.
or reappearing for GMAT would be a wise decision.
Well, this depends on how much do you think you're potential is and again on what kind of schools you're targeting at.
Many people are able to improve their score considerably, some marginally while some end up getting lower scores on their second attempt.
