Guys after 2 long years and 5 attempts - finally got a decent score. It’s been a long, and testing journey, but if I’ve learnt one thing it’s just that perseverance is the most important thing in gmat
605>615>635>615>685
My first 4 attempts were spread across August and December 2025. My final attempt was yesterday
Happy to help
Hey everyone,
I’d love to get some feedback on my profile as an MBA applicant.
I’m currently a Manager at Accenture Strategy & Consulting, having recently moved from Deloitte, where I spent about 7 years in Human Capital Management Consulting. I’m 31 years old
I completed my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Economics from the University of Warwick with High Merit.
Outside of work, I’m deeply involved in electronic music. What started as a hobby has grown into something much bigger—I DJ, produce my own music, have played at large-scale music festivals, and co-founded an events IP. In 2023, we organised over 30 events, built a strong community around our subgenre, and generated meaningful revenue. I also completed a Diploma in Electronic Music Production from Point Blank Music School, London.
I recently retook the GMAT Focus Edition and scored 685 (5th attempt)
What do you think my chances are at ISB and IIM Ahmedabad with this profile? Is a 685 GMAT Focus considered a strong score for these programs, or would it still be worth attempting the GMAT again?
