GMAT Strategy

So after taking the GMAT in the late fall of 2011, scoring a 690 twice, applying to a small handful of schools and getting rejected. I'm looking to take the GMATs again, score above a 700 and reapply. When I previously studied, I went through the official tests, took the MGMAT online course and even went through a MGMAT tutor to study for the second test. I'm looking at options where I don't feel like I'm throwing money away and not getting any results, which is what entices me about Knewton (Money back guarantee is nice).

Does anyone who has experience with Knewton think this is the right or wrong move?

thanks!

I know someone who scored 700 and took Knewton scored 720 next time. So Knewton can be valuable however if you are looking to push around 740+, then lot of supplementary work is needed.

thanks that's helpful. I focused entirely on quant when working with a tutor, which didn't get me as far as I wanted to. I'm hopping there's a better methodology that may help me focus my attention on the areas I need to improve.

Thanks for the reply. I was rejected from Stanford and Yale, interviewed with Cornell and was wait-listed. I think the major thing was that my 690 GMAT wasn't enough to ignore my 2.83 Cumulative GPA for a B.A. degree in international relations.

My interpretation. I never received feedback from Admissions.

That's crossed my mind last year, and was something I seriously considered when I was wait listed at Cornell. Unfortunately, I was working long hours and weekends for Work and couldn't dedicate myself then. I am going to put in a few months to retake the GMAT, and if I really don't get the score I'm looking for, I will take some accounting classes to bolster my resume.

the feedback is great, thanks Brian.
