Hi all!
Does anyone have any insight as to whether it is a good idea to include all 3 pages (revealing who you sent report to) on the MBA application. I unfortunately did not score a 770
and instead scored 10-20 pts below average of the school I am currently applying to. This school is on the lower end of prestige of the schools I sent to and may be my best chance of acceptance due to not performing to my full ability on GMAT.
Thank you all in advance!
Hi Aaronwhite1989,
It is surprising that the school asking for the unofficial report. It is increasingly rare for schools to ask that because the scores are reported to them from GMAC directly.
Having said that, it is perfectly okay to go ahead and submit the report. B-schools have the maturity to understand that candidates do apply to other B-schools and look at applications and candidatures holistically. GMAT is just one of the parameters. The only place where you might be asked to defend your choice of school i.e. answer why have you applied to this particular B-school is the interview and I am sure you will be ready with a great answer!
Go ahead and submit the report and all the best!
Feel free to reach out in case of other queries.
