GMAT 630 10+ yrs work ex

by anujtandon91 Wed Nov 14, 2012 7:02 am

Hi,

I am a 33 year old with 10 + years of work ex in the Media Industry in India (Advertising Sales). I have worked with Brands like The Times of India, National Geographic Channel & Star India. I have a Bachelors in Commerce from Delhi University & a Post Graduate Diploma in Marketing Management from Times School of Marketing.

I gave my GMAT in Apr 2012 got a score of 630(V-32 Q-44 AWA-4.5) I want to apply for the Fall 2013 MBA programs and am intrested in programs at Cambridge, Oxford, U of Toronoto, York & UBC in Europe & Canada.

Should I be looking to retake my GMAT before applying?

Regards,
A

Hello,

Thanks for sharing your profile. Your work experience is definitely more unique for an Indian applicant, and although you are applying non-top tier programs, I would suggest retaking the GMAT if you can, as I believe the averages for these programs hover around 650/660. Any chance of bumping to a 650?

Good luck,
Mili
