You might find this article interesting, as I wrote about the top reasons applicants get "dinged" and how to avoid it when reapplying. It's extremely important to understand the mistakes you made, so you don't just make them again. https://mbaivyleague.wordpress.com/2015/03/26/dinged-why-y...

Are you saying you don't want to invest the time, or the money to buy the practice materials? You need to do both, because a 590 isn't going to get you where you want to go. In terms of resources though, I often recommend that my clients try to pick up an English grammar book, such as this one. It s...

Hi, I answered you on your pm, but thought I would answer here as well so others could benefit. Yes, pushing your score above 700 (or, certainly 720) will put you in a whole new ballpark. With 720, you would be competitive for both Stanford and Haas, as well as USC, and UCLA Anderson, in terms of We...

R1 is always better than R2, in my professional opinion. Can you move up your GMAT testing date? The way you have it, you really do need to apply R2, as you should take the test before the deadline date, and if you want R1 you will be too late.
