GMAT 3rd attempt and aftermath

I took GMAT on 31-OCT-2012 and scored 660. Though i am not content with the score, but for now i have decided to move to the other facets of Admission preparation.

I had applied for IIMB and had the Interview on 18-11-2012 and got DINGED. I felt that the interview had gone well, but i did not receive any reasons for failing in it.

I had tried to reach to the admission team to learn about the reasons for failure, but i am not successful in it yet. I would try to get that information before the next blog.

I had applied for IIM-Lucknow and had just finished the interview on 4-12-2012. I felt it was a stressful interview, but i dont think so that i would clear it. Hence i have moved on with it and waiting to hear officially.

I had applied for ISB in its 2nd round. I hope i would receive a call from there.

Meanwhile, i am attending PMP Workshop by sabcons this month and hope to be PMP certified by Jan'13 month end. I hope i would acheive that soon. Meanwhile i also have to apply for Emory by 15-JAN-2013 and Johnson by 30-JAN-2013. I should get the calls for interview and i hope i would clear them.

My dream was and stilll is to study from our IIMs.

Have 3rd attempt GMAT on 31-OCT-2012

Though my working on problems, i am leaving all efforts to be in the last 10 days of the month.... I feel i know the concept, but i often fail...

But as i said, i will strive hard to get good score...for me good score is 670 and Above.
