I had the same question in mind.. The app deadline is Dec 15th I guess. I have taken the GMAT twice already (710 and 730). I would have about 4 yrs of work ex(at matriculation) and >15 months of international experience.
Now, would it be a detrimental to my chances if I go for a 3rd attempt on GMAT?

You will find all the data there.

Thanks NOTHING1954. I found the xls. One more query - How many seats are there in IIMs for overseas students?

Thanks!

They don't have any fixed number of seats. Generally on an average about 4, 5 people in a batch of about 250- 300 students may be coming through the NRI route.

no one around..huh.

Anyways...here is my profile.

GMAT:710
Work ex: 1 year in an I Bank(at the time of start of session-assuming I get in)
Acads:Good
Education: Masters (in US from a reputed univ)

I am currently preparing the application for IIM A(deadline dec 15th). I am certain to get a ding from IIM A as I have a low GMAT score.

Thanks

Don't waste your time and effort on IIMA application. Go through the excel sheet somebody has prepared regarding stats for last years NRI admits.
Nobody with less than 760 GMAT score got into IIMA as NRI.
Check it out- details are given in this link itself.

Thanks Nothing.

I know I dont have a chance but I guess it is too late to take the GMAT again. So, I have decided to go ahead with the apps anyways.

Are you also applying this year for NRI seats?

No. Exploring the possibility for the future
