Hi,
After multiple attempts at the GMAT and the GRE, I have the following best scores:
a) GMAT: 680 V-34, Q-49, AWA-5, IR-8
b) GMAT: 680 V-40, Q-43, AWA-5, IR-4
c) GRE: 323 (=680 GMAT per ETS conversion tool) V-159, Q-164, AWA-4
I have a 3.7 GPA (A's in all calculus classes) in engineering from a top 3 US engineering school. I am an Indian male applicant based out of the US.
Which score(s) would you suggest that I submit to the schools in general? Are there some schools that are more accomodating of the GRE score? How about schools that claim to consider highest sectional scores across multiple settings (such as Tuck)?
My schools are Columbia, Kellogg, Booth, Tuck, Duke, Ross, UVA, NYU, Cornell, CMU.
Thanks!

Honestly, these schools are all going to be very tough to get into with your current scores, especially since you are an Indian male engineer. As I'm sure you know, that's an extremely tough demographic (even if you're applying from the US) & it's also one that tends to have very high GMAT scores that are typically 20-40 points above a school's average (in addition to also have high GPAs). Your scores are actually quite a bit below the average for all of these schools so my advice would be to aim lower. At a minimum you want to apply to schools where you hit the average, and given your demographic I'd include some schools where you exceed it. Of these 3 scores I think #1 is your best option given the quant score, but like I said, it's really going to be too low to make you competitive at these schools in my opinion at least based on what you shared here. The exception might be if you truly have unique work experience with totally incredible results, but just based on the stats these schools will all be quite a reach.

If you have good enough gmat score (around 730+) would it be adequate to get admission in top 30 business school in US given that I don't have any work experience. If not what are the factors that I should put in my resume that will positively effect my admission in these business schools without going through the procedure of procuring a job first .I am indian engineering male
