Hi there,

I have just given the gmat scored a low 660. I was aiming for 700+.
I am considering 2 options at the moment

1. Wait for 1-2 months and retake the GMAT

Or

2. Apply to colleges with this score and profile. I have 5 years 4 months exp as of Oct'2010. I have worked in R&D as software engineer and senior software engineer and now as team lead. I have a decent undergrad and a very bright high school profile. My extra-curricular are ok but sports are good.

I was thinking of HEC, Insead, ISB, Said.

Kindly help me out as to if I do really good essays do stand a chance in these colleges?
If Not, what band of colleges will be most suitable for applying at the moment.

Thanks,
