I've been struggling to decide whether or not I should retake the GMAT. My current score is a 570 with a 3.4 GPA from 140-150 ranking level school (I guess that would be average). I have one-year experience working abroad and four years experience in DoD consulting. I have excellent recommendations from my supervisors and clients; however, I don't know if I would be able to get into the programs that I want to without re-taking the GMAT. I'm aiming to be a cohort in the following evening / part-time MBA programs:

George Washington University
Georgetown University
University of Maryland

Taking the exam is VERY time consuming, and I really struggle with the math portion, even though I do quantitative data analysis everyday. The first round of applications are due on October, so any advice / guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Yes.
A 570 is too low. You can do better!
I know it's time consuming, but it's totally worth it :)

Good morning,

Thank you for your quick response. What would you say is a good score to settle for if I take it again in November? Applications for the programs are due in January.

Thank you!

Hey there,
Well, I think otherwise your profile is strong what with your DoD experience, and it is also true that PT programs are less demanding when it comes to GMAT, nonetheless if you feel like you can get 30-40 points higher by then, I would recommend it.

Depending on what else you are doing I think it is both possible and desirable to study for GMAT simultaneously while working on your applications.

I will mention though that given your work, I think you can make up for a LOT through story.

Best of luck!
And let me know if there's any other way I can help,
Best,
Jon
