Hello,
I recently took the Online GMAT.
I want to apply to the MiM program and LBS is my dream school. (Im applying from India).
I had prepped extensively for a month and a half, and got a 760(Q50,V42) and 710 (Q49,V38) on my latest mocks before the exam. However, I was really nervous on the test date, and Quant is a section Im really afraid of, and I knew that I had messed up in the Quant section, like a lot, because I was so nervous. After the quant section, I composed my self and did the Verbal and IR sections, which went a lot better. So heres my final score- 680 (Q44, V40).
This isnt a score of my potential, and I feel I could do better. But, heres my dilemma.
1) Is this Quant score going to pull my application down?
2) LBS Round 2 deadlines are on the 4th of Nov, and the Round 3 deadlines are on 25th Jan. Im very hesitant about pushing the application to Round 3, given that its a very big window, and could get very competitive. I need some advice on if I should retake the GMAT, and if yes, when.
3) Should I prioritise the application? Should I apply to LBS first, then take retake the GMAT and then apply to the other schools(rolling admission cycle).
Somebody please give me some clarity.
In terms of my profile as a whole:
I have a CGPA of 9.8/10.
I have 2 small tier company internships, and family business experience.
I am currently running a community service project of my own.
I have very strong volunteer experience.
I have held a few leadership positions in school and university.
I have also been part of many organising teams, in a leadership capacity.
I speak Spanish.
So thats mainly the gist of my profile. If somebody could please help me out?
Thanks a lot.
