Hi Everyone,

I am public sector bank of indian Bank (fortune 500 company) with 8 years experience. Will turn 30 this year, just wanted to know if am too late and old for HSW and what sort of score i would require.



HWSVam

Age is but a number. What you need to focus on is making a really compelling case for yourself at HSW.

HBS's goal statement, for example, is to "educate leaders who make a difference in the world." Successful HBS candidates are talented individuals who have exhibited significant accomplishments in a number of fields like as business, social impact, arts, sports, government organisations, and so on. As a result, your strategy for getting into HBS should emphasize the excellent development trajectory, leadership experience, and uniqueness that you will bring to the cohort.

Regarding GMAT-
I advise applicants to consider GMAT scores in the quantitative and verbal sections individually. Admissions committees evaluate your performance along with that of your peers (from your population group) on a normalized curve. For example, a Q49+ score (>75th percentile) is considered borderline elite for overrepresented populations at top business schools. If your quantitative score meets or exceeds this threshold, the admissions committee is confident that you can handle the academically demanding curriculum.
Your verbal score is more likely to reflect your ability to participate in discussions in a truly diverse group at schools like HSW that place a high value on discussion-based pedagogy. Aim for a score of 40+ if possible.

Get personalized advice tailored to your specific situation.. Do not hesitate to reach out to us if you need help navigating your unique circumstances in the B School admissions process.
