  1. From the information that I have gathered, I can say that it is very very difficult for you to get get admission into top US schools if u already have a MBA from IIM. Even in India, now a days IIMs' are not entirely open about taking students with masters degrees. One of my friends was dinged in IIM interview because he had a masters in IT. It does not mean that you cannot get to do a second MBA in these schools. But your essays need to be extremely strong to prove why you need another MBA when u have one already.
  2. check out the book, "How to get into Top MBA programs" .. its a good one for applications process. BTW, what colleges are you looking at?
  3. That is a superb score.. You truly rock. I am in total awe of your verbal score. best of luck on your apps!
  4. 680+ will be a very good score for your exp. All the best for your next attempt. In this forum I have read only one post that said that the computer score and actual score were different. In most cases they are the same.
  5. Hi, Cant answer the first. Abt. the second, what is your target score? If you want to increase it by another 50 points and if you still have that energy that you had before giving the exam, then I suggest giving a second shot soon. But take care to analyze your weak areas and do the [tooltip=Official Guide]OG[/tooltip] atleast once more before giving the exam. If you are looking at 750 plus, then take off for a month. And prepare a rigorous plan that suits you. Do every material available. When giving a second attempt, it is imperative that you carry your energies and that you do not feel burnt out or tired.
  6. Thanks for the reply Dawid. Being in a competetive demographic has its own challenges.Now it is pretty clear to me that I have to give a second shot at the exam and increase the score beyond 750 to entertain any thoughts of going to the best universities. thank you, Manoj

  8. hmm.. you can minus one possibility ;) .
  9. what are the parttime programs available in Bay Area?
  10. Amit, Check BusinessWeek ratings.Michigan is in top 10 ratings from the last few years. I suggest you to decide between Michigan and Yale. I dont think that CMU is worth the huge investment if you can make it to better univ. If you get into the desired schools of your choice, you should not think about finance. Do everything possible in this world - go and meet the PM, meet the FM, appeal to a VC or threaten your bank manager, do every sort of good, bad and ugly to get the funding because the cause is great and just. rgds,
  11. 1 .Practice the [tooltip=Official Guide]OG[/tooltip] verbal once again 2. Do the entire quant on this forum. 3. Take atleast 10 practice tests(KP,PT, Paper based etc). 4. Stay alert. Read the questions twice.
  12. Your Kaplan scores are not bad. In most cases, people score atleast 100 more than what they score on Kaplan. Your Kaplan scores indicate that you can take it to 650 levels. So dont worry about it. Just increase the momentum and give a second shot soon in next month. You will definately get a hundred more. Make sure that you take atleast 10 practice tests before you give the exam again. All the best.
  13. Great Score Akshay.. Fantastic effort on Quant. Awesome.. I think 51 is no mistakes on quant.
  14. E has tense errors... 'there is..' does not refer to an action that started in past and is continuing still
