Low GMAT score

by nikunj225 » Thu Dec 17, 2015 12:19 pm
First attempt in gmat without any preparation. Got 460, Q-46, V-11. Currently in final year doing my B.Tech. No work experience. Any chances for B-Schoool abroad? Shall I appear for retake? How shall I improve my GMAT score. Which universities shall I get with this score?

Hi nikunj225,

The process of applying to (and ultimately attending) Business School requires a big investment of time, money and energy on your part. As such, you really have to define what YOU want out of an MBA and the specific details of the Program you're interested in.

Here are some things to consider:

1) Is there a particular company that you want to work for or industry that you want to work in? Certain degrees are more appropriate than others if you have a specific career goal.
2) What do you want your MBA to do for you?
3) Do you want to go to School full-time or part-time?
4) Are you willing to relocate? Are you comfortable with working through a program that is primarily online?
5) Are you going to be applying for scholarships?
Etc.

Once you've determined what type of Program you want to attend (as well as the other variables involved), then you can start to research and narrow down the possibilities.

With your current GMAT score and lack of Work Experience, your Business School options will be limited.
