Hello, a little background about me. I started with GMAT preparation very late (january), but was very confident of 730-740 score as I scored the same in all of the GMATPrep exams. Performance pressure kicked in and I scored below my expectations (700) in the real exam. Since then, I have been thinking to retake the exam, but many of my friends (already in b-schools) told me not to retake GMAT, rather focus on the applications and essays.
Well, I am aware that I am late for most of the b-school applications, but I still want to give it a try. I am targeting top European b-schools (HEC, INSEAD, IESE, IE, Said Oxford and Cambridge) most of which have initial rounds in late March-April. A brief about my profile - 6 years of work experience in international Telecom giant as Project Lead (experience in Project Management and Agile), Team Lead and Developer. Graduated from IIT Kharagpur with B.Tech in Electrical Engineering (CGPA - 7.3). Held few positions of responsibilities/leadership at IIT and my current company.
So, do you think I stand a chance in the schools I mentioned above (I am not confident about INSEAD)? Which schools I should consider? What should I focus more on? Should I even consider retaking the exam?
What is the best way to approach essays?

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
