Guys,
I got the above score and I am not totally satisfied. I was hoping to crack the 700 barier.
I am an Indian(working for last 6 years in US) with 10 years of experience in IT field. I read somewhere that for International student (Asian) 720 is a average score!! I am not sure how true that is.
I have Bachelors degree in Electrical engineering from a reputed college in India with an above average record. I am not sure how to calculate the GPA (any help is highly appreciated).
I want to do MBA in finance, especially in Investment Banking. I know Top 5 is beyond me. But I am not sure whether I have realistic chances in Top 10-15. I really hope columbia hears me out.Any thoughts on how to approach?
I am also considering retaking the test, but not sure as of now.
Finally, I am grateful to this forum for all the resources, although hooked in little late.
Got a 680 (Q48,V35) - Is it Good enough?

for GPA check the application form of your prospective b-school and check if they really ask for 4.0 scaled GPA report.... most of the schools take your marks as it is..
Ask Stacy for help...
