Thanks for sharing your profile.

If you can consider retaking the GMAT, it would help make your applications more competitive. You have to consider that you are coming from a very competitive applicant pool, and you need to compensate for your academics. Doing well on the GMAT and scoring above the average of your target schools would help your chances of admissions.

Wish you all the best and look forward to your updates.

I agree dude!
Your profile is overall quite solid, and if you can push that GMAT even 30/40 points (more is better!) by application time, that would be awesome!!!

Best,
JF

Thank you for getting back to me!

I have shortlisted JMSB- Concordia University and their avg GMAT is 623.
Could you all please provide some information about that school? I am considering it because it has good local presence and make sense financially.
Most of the current students at JMSB thinks it is value for money as the opportunities provided are quite similar to those provided at McGill or UBC.

I am also planning to learn some basic french as it will help me survive in Montreal.

Thanks!

"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."
