Admissions committees evaluate the GMAT/GRE in context — your background, your representation in the applicant pool, the strength of everything else in your file. The same score works for one candidate and falls short for another with identical numbers.

Scholarship at Johnson is 10% of total cost per year. No money offered from Tuck. I am a Canadian citizen looking to relocate to the US (preferably NY, Boston or Chicago) after graduation. I have experience in Asset Management, but am open to looking at other industries either within finance (PE, IB) or outside (ie consulting). I have visited both schools and really loved both, but would give a slight edge to Tuck due to the strong community.
Would really appreciate your insights/advice!

Congratulations on your Admits!
Both Schools/Programs will offer a good shot at Consulting/MBB. Tuck is usually meaningfully stronger in consulting - both in terms of placement and in terms of opportunities available and MBB coming on campus. (Tuck: 77 Johnson: 55 placed in consulting; Class size is the same). Tuck's alum base and community is tighter and more responsive, so you would get more support. I would personally pick Tuck - a lot more personality and recognition. Tuck's rankings sank a bit in the last few years but it's been a Top 10 program the last 12 out of 13 years.... https://gmatclub.com/forum/mba-rankings ... 99812.html
I would strongly encourage you to chat with students and attend a welcome weekend in Hanover before declining Tuck.

bb Thanks for your response! That makes sense.
Unfortunately the admitted weekends are only in April, long after the decision date/deposits are due. However I definitely agree that Tuck is the better opportunity, and likely a better fit for me as well.

but I do think it makes it a competitive case for Johnson for Finance.
