Biren,
Thanks for the wishes. Though you can do your findings, I would suggest you go for your TOEFL. It makes life much easier as you can apply to any school you want to as opposed to checking whether any particular school has a TOEFL waiver or not. When you are ready to invest $100K, $125 will not seem much. And if you are well versed in english, as I see, 2-3 days prep would be enough to get you a score of >280.

-- Vivek.

Hi Vivek, Thanks for your thoughts. I will go with your view.

I was hesitent to take it because currently I am preparing for GMAT which would be followed by application process as you know.

About TOEFEL the only thing I know is that it is test for English. I need to do some R & D to know format of test and other things. If you have any input(website/practice material etc) which will help me get through this fast then please let me know.

By the way I sent mails to Harward and Tuck b schools and Tuck administrator replied clearly that I do not need to take TOEFEL. The HBS administrator sent me a reply that is probably a generalised message that says the same thing as mentioned in their website. I have mentioned that in my message earlier.

Thanks!
