Too late for this year?

[Harvarddreamer]

Hi Forum members...

I am appearing for my GMAT on November 21 - this would be my second attempt! I keep getting this feeling that I am too late!
The first attempt I scored 620 - being an international student and not a top class performer in highschool and college I am aiming at a 700 atleast!

Plus as my name suggests - I am high on Harvard - so any tips related to the JD - MBA+ MPAID will be helpful!

I know I am far from there right now...

Is there anyone else in the same boat! I will feel relieved!

Thanks

Hello HARVARDDREAMER,

First of all, GOOD LUCK on your GMAT!

Second, I think it's not that late to go for the second round. Where are you from? Do you have any work experience?

Thanks Sushkan and Gugandra,

I am from India orginally but in US now working for 2 years in a non profit - looking at Joint degrees - MBA + MPA/ID.
Before US - I worked 6 months in India - in non profit again.

All the best for your GMAT Sushkan.... How are you preparing?

I am looking at the second round - definitely!

Thanks guys!
Do keep me posted on what your 'Gradschool' dreams are...

second round is in January, right? so you should write the test by mid December, because i think they want official scores, which they will get after 21 days(?) of the exam date.
