thinking of taking a few weeks off then hitting it hard
Dude, when I was in high school, I took the SAT the first time and got the same score as a mouth breathing knuckle dragger. Totally embarrassed. I went to the beach with my buddies for the weekend, came back and studied for a few days after taking a week off and nailed it. Time off can definitely help. Obviously the SAT is nothing compared to the GMAT but still applies.
Yeah take some time off man, same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago and I was so pissed that I couldn't focus on studying after that. Few days off took care of it.
no, I consistently got low 700s on practice tests without any prep. Maybe you're just fucking stupid? Something to think about!
thought about it and not the case. better luck next time

Back to the original question...
I just took the GMAT back in late August, so I'm pretty fresh on all of this stuff.
A score that low from someone already in the industry signals a bad practice exam. Which company / version did you use? ManhattanGMAT (6 free with the purchase of any MGMAT book) and the official GMATPrep exams (available for free after you schedule a date from mba.com) are the only ones that give you a fairly accurate practice score.
monty trades natty and power, not oil silly squirtles. evolve to blastoise or something
were you taking kaplan? try taking another practice run im sure score wont be that bad again :P if it is then try to see wtf youre doing wrong...
monty arent you some bsd energy trader, why bschool if you dont mind me asking?
as scary as it sounds i like helping others get their start
maybe i should do tfa
that is rather noble of you
do you really need to retake? Sweating GMAT scores is for people with weak resumes. Mid 600s should be ok given your resume (If I recall: college sports, many years of trading, volunteering). Here’s the real question: what business job is less boring than trading? If you’re bored now, wait till you get to banking or consulting.
your right but one thing... my inner flame to beat you or him or her.... i think at all of our core we want to be the best we can. you see it even more on this board then regular life... while i am fine for the schools i am looking at... i want it to be 100% paid for... last thing i want is to be sitting next to some kid who got a 710 with two weeks of prep... yeah thats cool and all but i would want to fking body slam him/her... maybe its the trader in me
