Hello,
I'm a unconventional candidate with a sub-3 undergrad gpa (grad gpa of 3.57). I attended a very good liberal arts school, and have good work experience. A note: Retaking the GMAT would mean that I would have to apply in R2 instead of R1.
Q1: Would a 750 GMAT substantially increase my chances for admission to a top 15 school?
I have only taken it once, and I studied for about 6 weeks to get a 720. When taking the test, I had never done so well on the Q (47 was my highest) or so poorly on the V (42 was my lowest).
Q2: Would a month of intense study get my score up 30 points?
Q3: Is there any value at all in only having taken the test once?
My top schools are Sloan and Stern, and I'm a white male living in the midwest (not sure how important demographics are).
Thanks for any input!!
