Thanks for sharing….

That is it 2016 article with 2015 data… I mean, we have a lot of solid but dated posts that need to be updated so I have no rights to call out dates 😂 but if you’re going to post a one sentence post an unsolicited link, maybe give it an Update first? 😬

My apologies bb. I hired a new assistant, and she pulled a bunch of articles off my blog. Had the same problem with social media accounts. I will rectify the problem this week, and it won't happen again,

Thanks for sharing the post. I was trying to find the lowest GMAT percentiles for top business schools, especially in recent years. The average GMAT score was increased from 558 in 2016 to 568.21 in 2021. Was it the same case for the top ten business schools? I also found the following resources might be helpful.
