Hello,
I have recently been admitted into Darden's differed admissions program with a 700 GMAT. I have a year and a half before matriculating to Darden, so I am considering retaking the GMAT to either boost my chances of receiving scholarships, or to see if I can get into other programs. My hesitation is if I increase my 700 to 720 or 730, how much more competitive would it make me? In other words, is it worth spending the time and money retaking the GMAT to improve by 20-30 points.
A little more background:
Business Econ undergrad at Kelley with a 3.9 GPA
3 years of experience at Deloitte Services - Engagement Financial Advisor
Manage 1 India counterpart
Average/slightly above average recs & essays
New target schools would be Ross, Kellogg, & Booth.![]()
