Hi:


Im seriously considering writing the GMAT again, but am not sure if it is worth the time or the stress as I scored only slightly below my goal of 610-630 range which i feel would easily land me in McMasters COOP program in Ontario Canada which says succesful applicants typically score upwards of 600 (the mean is listed as 627). I recently wrote a 590 (Q34 V38 AWA6), i have a B+ average in Honours history and have 3 years experience in various capacities in an Insurance Undewriting company. While i think i can improve my score im not sure if i can improve enough to make it worthwhile writing again.

Any advice is greaty appreciated

Hi,

Thanks for your post. This is a great question. Many applicants often struggle with this issue. In the end I always give the same advice. First, do you think you can improve your score? If you do think you can improve your score, but decide not to retake it, will you be upset if you don't gain admission and regret not retaking the exam? If you think for a moment you might regret it then it's worth taking the time to retake it. This advice only holds true if you honestly think you can improve your score and break the 600 mark.

Best,

Stacey
