Hello experts,

For B-schools, is it recommended to submit GRE or GMAT scores? I have both and want to know if one is more favorable than the other with AdComms?

Any advice will be helpful.

Thanks!!

mwatkins,
I assume your GMAT and GRE scores are virtually equivalent? If not, submit that score that is highest. There's evidence that the acceptance rate of GRE applicants is higher than for GMAT applicants, but your background will also be a factor. If you are a quant (not a poet) then schools may prefer seeing a GMAT from you. But at the end of the day, I would submit the test with the higher score.

Completely agree with Paul - it's all about story so pick the score that is not only higher, but also tells your story better.
