Admission/Interview Trends at M7 Schools based on GMAT scores for 2021-22 Round 1


Hello GMATClub,

As round 1 is over, we decided to study the stats of applicants to analyze admission trends and the impact of GMAT score on acceptance/interview invites of R1 applicants at M7 Schools: Harvard, Stanford, Wharton, Booth, Kellogg, MIT Sloan, Columbia.

This analysis is based on our user data, which is self-reported. Hence it's advised to use findings of this analysis with discretion. They are meant to give only a general idea of the admission scenario in R1. Don't presume that these findings will hold true all the time. We welcome any comments, opinions, suggestions or anything else that you might have to say about the findings of this analysis.

Interesting! Looking at it, it does not seem I can spot a difference based on scores between those who admitted, waitlisted or invited to interview :lol: which tells me past the 730, it is all about your profile, your essays, and your story!
