Hi,

Thanks for your post. My main concern is in regard to your GMAT. Your score is below the average score at Yale, Cornell and Tepper. Additionally those with similar backgrounds in the same applicant pool (engineers from India) tend to have a higher GMAT score, thus your score could be of some concern. In particular your verbal score may cause concern about your English communication skills. Have you considered retaking the GMAT? If not, you may wish to consider some lesser ranked programs with GMAT scores on par with yours.

Best,

Stacey

Hi,

Thanks for your post. It's a bit difficult for me to recommend schools when I don't know what you want to do post MBA. Can you share your short and long term goals?

Thanks,

Stacey

"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."
