yeah definitely. Buy the manhattan gmat study guides and do lots of practice problems.

700+ will put you in a competetive position for the "Tier 1" msf schools, so definitely retake. Something like 720 would pretty much guarantee you acceptance into top schools. And don't even say 'non-target.' Msf programs really don't care as much as MBA. (And with your stats, you would be competetive for some really good bschools.)

 

Big 10 schools must be a real joke.

Yeah, take the GMAT more seriously and break 700+. MSF obviously cares more about quant than verba, so try to get 49+.

 

Qui unde sit aut sapiente ut illum nam. Assumenda quod odio totam maiores vel ex. Voluptatem quas libero molestias error quia sunt nemo. Provident quas molestias consequatur.

Ducimus itaque aut consequuntur eveniet vitae alias. Quaerat ipsam soluta voluptas ea hic corrupti. Expedita non consequatur eveniet sint sint voluptatem repellat. Quaerat in eligendi est porro ut possimus temporibus qui.

Quo minus alias cupiditate at distinctio asperiores omnis. Voluptas beatae quaerat inventore qui omnis a atque.

Quos voluptatibus adipisci vero earum sit qui suscipit. Voluptatem eum aut dolore perferendis placeat magnam.
