Beaten By GMAT

by racy846 » Mon Sep 05, 2011 7:04 am
I Gave my GMAT today and couldn't believe i scored 630 with Q:-48 , V :- 28 :(
Scored 680-690 in Manhattan GMAT consistently.
I hoped to apply for NUS & NTU Singapore but my scores are very less.
I want to do MBA in operations as i have 3.4 yr of Work ex with automobile manufacturing company.
My acads in college was 8.47/10 B.tech in mechanical engineering.
I have a patent if that helps.
Can anyone suggest any college that would fit in my score or its better to retake GMAT

Seeing that you have been scoring so much higher in your mock tests, and that a 630 is really bit a low for top schools, I'd go for the GMAT again, especially since the rest of the profile looks pretty good.

racy,

Given the strength of your record outside of the GMAT, it is time to face the reality that you need to take the test again if you want to apply to a quality program. If this means applying next year then take the time to also bolster some other aspects of your application, like take a business course for a grade at a credible university or increase your footprint in a community activity.

Good Luck!
