Hi Stacy,
I got a 690 on the GMAT (45Q and 40V) and am not sure if I should take it again. My score was 40 points lower than what I got on the practice test but I felt the actual test was considerably more difficult than the practice test. If I keep studying I might boost it up 10 or 20 points but am not sure if it would be better to spend my time working on the remaining elements of the application process.
I will apply to Stanford, Duke, Columbia, Berkeley and MIT. I am from Colombia so Spanish is my native language and I studied Italian and Portuguese in college. I have a BA in Mathematical Economics from a Liberal Arts College in Colorado and will have 3 years of experience working in the Transfer Pricing practice of a Big 4 by the time I enroll (2011).
I know universities boast about diversity in their programs but I am not sure how much it matters in practice. Would you suggest I keep studying and take the test again? I would greatly appreciate your advice.
