Hi,
I will apply to deferred MBA programs in the next few weeks. However, my GMAT (under 700) is low relative to the average applicant but within the accepted range. I am trying to improve it but wondering how, if possible, I can be admitted despite the low GMAT.

I have a STEM background, high GPA, and have very very strong internship experience + career goals essays. Is there anything I can do in the application that would shine bright enough to make the low gmat be less relevant?

Hello mrdeferredmbagoal,

Even considering that your overall profile is strong, deferred MBA programs are very competitive and we would strongly recommend that you improve your GMAT score and apply with a score upwards of 720 on the GMAT. Needless to say, the higher the better.

All the best!
