Advice to apply

by hai1 » Sun Mar 28, 2010 7:13 pm
Hi,
My GMAT score is 600 (V-27 (42%); Q-47 (78%); AW- 5 (56%));

Is it waste of money to apply for MBA program with McCombs and MFE program with Berkely?

Experience: 7 Years in Information Technology
Highest level of education: MS in Egineering 3.7/4.0

Please let me know if anyone has any idea.

Can you take the GMAT again to raise your V score?
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

I really doubt if it makes a difference Money!

After preparing for 2 years with intensive training in verbal, I took GRE in 2000 and received a very poor score in verbal. This time around, I first started thinking serious about GMAT in 2006. Since then I was going through sentence correction and RC. I finished 4 books on verbal and took some online tests. I went through all the SC questions on beatthegmat forum.

I downloaded chit cheats for verbal SC and read them thrice.

Hence even if I take one more GMAT test, it may improve my Math but not my verbal.

May be some brains like me are not prepared for verbal section at all!
