samsachd, I think you should consider the following 1. Get a private tutor. At this point, I think it makes sense. Let someone else detect the error trends that you make on Verbal. 2. Maybe push out your MBA applications by one year to give you time to strategize properly 3. Work on your Verbal!!!!!...

Do you have leadership experience at work and outside of work? Focus on that and not the GMAT score. You've crossed the GMAT competency threshold. Now you must cross the leadership and community development threshold.
Good luck on your applications

The process is not so black and white!! Relax! I also think McCombs is probably the easiest of the schools you've listed to get into. Haas is probably the toughest.
If your application is powerful, you'll be considered. You'll be fine! Good luck

That score will get you into not only the schools listed but also others such as NYU,Columbia, Wharton, Harvard. The question is: what differentiates you from the other female Indian IT applicants? Can you co-workers and bosses attest to your leadership potential? Outside of work, have you demonstra...

mehravikas, I like your attitude. Here's a clip from YouTube to inspire you to BeatTheGmat: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AuULcVaMTf0&feature=related I totally agree with the SC under one minute strategy . That's the only way you'll have enough time to read, comprehend, and answer the RC and CR...

newuser_beatGMAT,
If I were you, I wouldn't focus so much on Quant. Verbal is where you should direct your energy. If you get a Verbal score of >=45 with you Quant at 44, you'd be in the 720s-730s.
Verbal is crucial to raising you score

Your 720 is a great score regardless of the Quant breakdown. If any adcoms committee rejects because of that then you probably don't want to be in such a school that has such a black/white approach to analysis. Your 50 in Verbal says a lot about your strenghths. If I were you I'd focus on my essays/...
