Hello Everyone,

I had my GMAT and was shocked by seeing the result.I ended up with 550.It is the least score i have ever got.In the last mock i got 710.But may be today is not my day.
I just like to know what are my chances in getting into a decent school.

My Profile

12th- 81%
B.E. - 78% (Electronics and Communication)

Approximately 2 years of work ex. as a software engineer in IT company.

I have been an active member of Corporate Social Responsibility Group. Helping poor children in getting education.
Received numerous awards in cricket, dance and singing.
Organized national level technical fest of my college(Also have a certificate of it)

Can get good recommendations. Initially i was looking for UC- Berkley and Davis, Michigan University, Rice Univ. and Case Western univ.
Now after having my GMAT score i dont know whether i'll be able to get into any of these universities.

Kindly Help me by letting me know what are my chances for these univ. and plz let me know some more univ where i can apply.

thatsanas,

What is the Q/V breakdown for your test? I think you can do better if you're willing to take it again. Why do you think your score was so much lower than expected?
