However (you knew there would be a “however”), for many applicants, the GRE can be a smarter choice, especially if taking that route can produce a much higher score. As you consider which test is going to be better for your MBA candidacy, there are a number of questions to consider. For instance:
• How do the quant and verbal sections compare?
• What kind of applicants tend to take one vs. the other?
• How do I overcome the stress of making this decision?
• How will the admissions committee view me based on which test I take?
