Hi,

I scored 680 (quant - 49, verbal 34)in GMAT. My gpa is 3.3 and by next year july I will have nearly 2.5 yrs of experience in IT industry. Which colleges can i apply to? Is this a good score or should I take the exam again, please advise what should I do. Do I stand any chance in tepper business school, insead, darden business school etc.please evaluate my profile and advise if I should appear for gmat again to improve my score.

Thanks

Hi freeky18,

If you feel there is potential upside on the GMAT then I do strongly recommend you re-take the test. The schools you mention all have average GMAT scores of 700+ and coming from from one of the most competitive profiles (IT engineer) it will be critical to have a GMAT score above the school's average.

Hope that helps and good luck.

Best,
Heidi
