Hi,
Has anyone here been offered admission with a GMAT Waiver? I tried to take an online test and had some awful lags. The test centers are closed in my city and so I've applied for GMAT waivers.
My GPA is 3.3 and I have 5 years of experience in healthcare consulting - Heavy on-site and client facing experience.
Is it wise to apply without a score?
Thank you!

It depends on where you are applying. A 3.3 GPA is great but it's not amazing for top-ranked programs. If you can share more about your target list that can help us with whether doing decently on the GMAT would help or make no difference with respect to your GPA.
If you want to share more about your profile beyond what you have provided, that would also be helpful. There's frankly too little information for many of us to make a strong recommendation.

I assume you applied for waivers and they were granted… ? Just wanted to clear this point.
I think this would be schools like Ross and Darden. I did hear from a Darden applicant who applied with LSAT and got waitlisted a few weeks ago. They got a chance to do a profile feedback with AdCom and it came down to the school looking for a higher GPA for their class. I don’t know if that is what they told them so that they would feel better about themselves or if that was the biggest sticking point but they had a 3.3. Based on the feedback, it didn’t seem they could easily fix the whitelist situation. I’m guessing a super high GMAT score could sort of offset that… but that was not a suggestion they got. I think in part, the overall profile may not have been super competitive and the GPA was the last straw or rather the deciding factor perhaps?
You can check the average GPA for the class profile. Most top 10 or top 15 hover around 3.5. I think it’s fine to apply without a score and from the selfish ranking perspective for a business school, your application actually has no impact. You just blend with the average but if you’re going to apply with the below average GPA, do you need to bring something to the table in terms of other value. Maybe it’s a diversity element or unique profile or something like that.
