Hi All. I am new to GMAT applications and preparations. I have 3.5yrs Work ex as Program manager with Amazon. had one promotion in between and can have strong LOR from GM and directors here. However, my score is a mere 680 ( older GMAT) Would requesting a waiver make more sense than applying with GMAT score?
Neither a waiver nor applying with 680 is recommended. You are advised to improve your score to create a fighting chance as an Indian male applicant.

I don’t think Duke offers GMAT waivers. The above advice is good but it really does depend on the candidate. I’m an international applicant and got in with a 480

My friend, you will rarely find an Indian male at any T25 school with a score below the reported average of the school.

Find it on their website! I’m not sure if the GMAT score to apply is available but there isn’t a minimum as far as I know. Dates should be on their website :)
