Hi all,
This is my first post here and I'm chasing some advice. I just sat the GMAT for the first time and am disappointed with my score. Trying to decide whether to re-sit as I'm aiming for admission to Harvard, Tuck or Booth.
My profile is below. As you can probably tell by my GMAT score I'm good with writing so I'm backing my ability to write convincing essays and have good recommenders. Not many Australians apply to the big US schools so I figure that will be an advantage for me as will my background in a different industry (sport).
Should I re-sit or should I back my ability to make a convincing case in other ways?
Any insight is appreciated!
