Forum: Just Finished My GMAT

Hi dear TestMagicians, I gave my gmat a few days ago and scored a 730. I have a 2 yrs workex with a well known software consultancy from india (ranks in top 20 worldwide) I don't think with that kinda workex (few yrs) i have a shot at the top10 b-skools (or do i?) :( i would preferably be...

Hello all! This is my first post. I took the GMAT yesterday and got a 680 (90th percentile). I'm not exactly ecstatic about it because I think I could have done better on the Math section. And of course, like everyone, I think I can do better if I take it again. My question is should I? ...

I just want to say that I am new and hopefully this forum will lead me into th right b-school. I know all to well your issues with the GMAT. I have never been one to do well on Standardized tests. This is painfully obvious with my SAT score of 1060 and my GMATs of low to mid 500s. However, ...

I have heard that getting a Masters of Science can infringe on my chances of gaining acceptance into a top tier B-school. Does anyone have any feedback on this. It would be uch appreciated.

Hi, I took gmat today. Scored 690 87%ile in maths and 76%ile in verbal. This was my second try at gmat. In my first try I had got 680 (now I feel I shouldn't have given a second try). Anyways, can you give me some good advice on what schools should I apply to. I have 4 years work ex. in...

Hi, I m new to this group. Sadly , I came to this group after my GMAT. I got 650 yesterday. pretty much disappointed. I messed it. My scores were pretty descent in mocks. I scored 690 and 730 in PP . I don't know whether my score together with a GPA of 3.4 is good enough for top...

The tension is finally over. Let me first thank this site for providing excellent info abt the test. Although i did not post many messages but i hv been an avid reader. I got a score of 710 Quant - 49 , Verbal - 37. The score is just about right as per my expectation. Rather 10-20 points on the...

hi, I found Testmagic to be an excellent site. Also been recommending it to a lot of my friends planning to take their GMAT I gave my GMAT couple of days back. The Maths section was not very tough but had some questions which I had not seen before on ETS, Kaplan, Arco or Princeton. The most...

Erin, I took the GMAT on 9/14/02 and got a score of 700. Math 50 97%, Verbal 35 76%, 93% overall. I was a bit disappointed by the performance of my verbal section. The 3th question of the verbal section is a RC with there questions, however, it took me a little more time than it should...

I took the GMAT this past saturday and got a 750. I think taking the test at Erin's Alma Mater, George Mason, was good luck!! Here's my breakdown: 48 Math (87th percentile) 46 Verbal (99th percentile) Practice tests PowerPrep tests: 740, 740 Kaplan Tests: 640, 640, 670, 670

This is a great site it helped a bunch. Took the test and got a 680 -- better than I was expecting. 67th percentile in math (which was rusty at best) and 96th percentile in verbal. Unlike some folks here, I cannot recall a verbal question where A was the right choice. Best of luck on the test...

I finally received my official GMAT score with AWA and all that. I received 5.5 on AWA (90 percentile). I did not really give focused attention to the preparation of AWA, but I think I did okay. FYI, I received 6.0 on TOEFL essay. The first AWA q was on the analysis of an argument. I think I...

Took GMAT today. I was kind of bummed with my score. I got 720 (Q 49 V 40) overall 97 percentile. I was expecting at least 730 with Q 50 (at least!). The reason I wanted a higher score is because I am applying for a PhD program which has higher standards for the candidates, plus I am a foreign...

Hi, Here is what I can recall from my GMAT exam. The Awa topic was : 'Employees should keep their personal activities out of workplace.' Quantitive section was easy (scaled score 47). No time problems there. I finished 10 minutes ahead of schedule. 1 question about combination ( 7 women, 5...
