Hello All,
With the current score, Should i retake the test?

I am planning to apply to ISB and Henry B Tippie School of Business.
I am in the manufacturing sector with 3 years of experience including 6 months of international Exp in USA and 6 months in China.

Please let me know.

Thanks,
Vijay

The average GMAT score for Tippie (for international students) was 688:

The average GMAT score for ISB is usually in the 710-720 range.

So I wouldn't see a reason why you don't need to consider retaking the GMAT.

The real problem, however, would be to focus on how to improve your scores. Did you give it your best shot? Where do you think you can improve? How much time do you have? etc.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
