I applied via GRE too , i don’t think there is any bias for the ones who applied via GMAT. It has more to do with Fit and being employable. Of the ones that have received an admit , many are from Tech backgrounds which resonates with School’s statistics. Over 50% of internationals recruit for Tech at McCombs.

I am going to be optimistic for the last one time and say yes! There should be hopes to get calls in the evening :)
Cai we be optimistic for the folks applied with GRE


I dont think they are biased about GRE/GMAT. What was your score? I am also applying in R2 with my GRE score.

I agree. I applied with waiver and got admitted irrespective of score.

There could be n number of things, perhaps essay and fit. I applied 322 last year and had gotten and interview and this year with 325 (No big brand names unlike the other folks)

But I do beleive my essays were good

I still feel McCombs prefers GMAT over GRE for consulting. Stacey and Rodrigo have been blunt about in the webinars

I had applied with waiver (granted within a day) and my essays I do believe were really good but unfortunately no interview invite. McCombs was the only school that didn’t send an interview invite to me after having been granted a waiver

Is It! when I attended the admission event and asked, they simply said it doesn't matter and wont impact my chances. Now that is pushing me into 2 minds :cry:

niteeshravi, I am not sure on this. Because i attended more than 5 McCombs events and they said that less than 3% of the candidates they selected in 2021 intake were from GMAT/GRE waiver pool
