I just wanted to update this thread by saying that I just got a 690 on practice exam. I'm going to visit some college friends this weekend for a few weeks, so I will obviously be pulling some girls by telling them that "I got a 690 on a practice GMAT (but under very legitimate testing conditions) so with another 100 hours of studying I will easily be in the 740s." I will report back.

Good luck, Tuna.

Don't hold your breath. A high GMAT score has nothing to do with your earning potential, and it only marginally increases your chances of admission into a top MBA program. If you want to pick up girls with misleading information, tell them you're a fighter pilot.

very true. But girls love smart guys so I think the gmat scores will help. Fighter pilot is a solid call though, good idea.

Re: Picking Up Girls With My GMAT Score At Bars [#permalink]
I hate to break it to you, but being in the military doesn't make anything a guarantee in terms of girls. I'm sorry if your recruiter lied to you. Please don't take that attitude into the military, by the way.

Do you brag about your SAT score or college GPA to get girls? If that works for you, great...those types of girls will also probably be impressed by a high GMAT. But I don't think there's too many of them around.

However, between this and your other posts, I can't tell if you're serious or trolling.

ummmm.... the kind of places that I go to - flashing a GMAT score would most definitely not get you chicks :D

But I guess there are places where the line : "My score is bigger than yours" would score a HIT....

I don't necessarily brag about my ACT, but if the topic is brought up I definitely throw my score out there and let the ladies know (I got a 30, not incredible, but it is like 95th percentile). My GPA was only about a 3.32 though, so I make sure not to bring that up.

If you're hanging out around the kind of people who bring up the topic of SAT/ACT in random conversations, you need to find some new people to hang out with. And if you're offering up your score to try to impress women, you need to reconsider your life.

southernstunna,

just imagine this:

You: -Hi Kattie, how are you?
Kattie: - Hi, I am fine, how about you?
You: - I am fine . I have recently passed the GMAT and received 720!
Kattie: - Really, so what? What is the GMAT?
you:- omgh... ?! :silent: Well GMAT is bla bl bla.. and maximum score is 800.
Kattie: - oh really? I have not heard about the GMAT. is it so good/cool to receive 720 out of 800? (She thinks at this moment "Hmm... this guy might be not so smart if he did not get 800".

Funny?

I think that most of pretty girls don't care / don't know about the GMAT.

I my region one may have a gmat of 210 and possess a luxury car like Porsche Cayenne.
Believe me he will be more attrractive to girls than one who gets 800 on the GMAT.


But look, nothing offensive. There may be a case that once you can impress a girl who struggles with the GMAT for two years and has less than 600.

haha so true. A majority of random girls at the bar have probably never even heard of the GMAT. There is a very good chance they do not know the difference between a 520 and a 700.

:lol: you have got my point.

I would suggest you to think about public libraries the % of girls there knowing about the GMAT must be higher :)

p.s. btw picking up a beautiful girl who knows about the GMAT and whose GMAT is high makes sense, since smart and beautiful girls are rare :)

funny topic indeed +1 from me :lol:

Guys,

You are all wrong.

I'll show on my example:
2 girls used to decline invites to visit my appartment to drink late evenings when I had only 690, but when I got 750 they swiftly accepted my invintation and now I even drink with both of them at one time ))))

So, the score DOES matter when it comes to alluring and seducing girls :)
