Hi

Took Gmat today. Was hoping for a better score, but alas, turned out to be much lower than expected.
My score is 680 (quant 90 percentile and verbal 67 percentile). I was planning to apply to the following b schools and now i am wary of applying as i think my score is less than the average accepted. Needed your help by looking at the profile, should i apply with the current score or take GMAT again

Schools : INSEAD, Booth, Stanford, Wharton, Columbia, LBS, Tuck

Profile:

Undergraduation - among top 3 students
Graduation - Top 20 college in india ; 1st rank in the college
Post-grad MBA from a top 10 b school in india - Allrounder award
Work experience -
1. Big credit rating agency in india (2 yrs)
2. Associate at a domestic PE firm (1.5 yrs)
3. Software consulting at a global IT major (1 yrs)

Other activities - decent activities at school and college level
Currently teach CFA at a leading firm (part-time)
Some charity work in the past though not very active presently

Planning to remain in the same industry but want to target international PE firms which surely need better exposure and a good international b school education in india

Will appreciate any help in deciding between applying with 680 score or target a better score

Hi rohitm,

For the programs you are considering, I recommend you take the GMAT again. The reason is that your highest GMAT score is self-reported on your application, so admissions teams will focus on your best score. There is no harm in taking the test again.

If you'd like, we provide free GMAT advice here: https://www.stacyblackman.com/gmat-files/

We also provide free 30 minute phone consultations here: https://www.stacyblackman.com/contact/

Hi Stacy

Back on the forum with update on my profile.

Retook the GMAT again and have now scored a 710 92% (Q 49 (81%), V 38 38 (85%)).
Last time around i had asked you about the chances at the top B schools. Though i understand that 710 is not a stratospheric score, however, would like to have a realistic understanding of what elements of my profile (including score if recommended) should i bolster to improve chances in these schools. Do you think my current GMAT score still needs to be improved and will it further help improve the application ?
My target list remains the same and plan to apply in the coming October session 1st round of these schools.

Please suggest/advice.
