Targeting Mid-Tier B Schools, is my profile good enough? Should I give GMAT again and aim for a higher score?

1 Answer

Answer :

I don’t even remember my GMAT score but it was in that range and I did not bother to retest. B-line business schools here in the U.S. seem to care more about your work experience. Most will have a formula that includes your GMAT + experience and other things. An MBA is useful but for a project manager a PMP certification is the preferred qualification here and it’s easier to get than an MBA.
