Hello,
I have written GMAT few times and the best score so far was a 730. Planning to try my luck in GRE, I prepared for 3 months and the practice tests show my scores between 330-335. Assuming that I get that score :
My questions are as follows
1. Should I submit both GRE and GMAT ?
2. Coming from an over represented background, a 730 is almost 8-10 points above the school averages but the gre is almost 10 points over. But GMAT helps in rankings, so does that mean someone with GMAT 760 vs someone with a GRE 335, the one with GMAT will be given priority ?
3. While all the schools say that both the scores are treated alike, there can be an unsaid bias towards GMAT. That said, at what score does the GRE act as attractive ?
The schools I am applying to are Fuqua, Ross, Tuck, Yale.
You inputs on this topic are highly appreciated.

Thanks for your questions.
1. Should I submit both GRE and GMAT ?
If you do well on both, sure. It does not hurt. It won't necessarily help. I believe the school will take the score that is most in your favor.
2. Coming from an over represented background, a 730 is almost 8-10 points above the school averages but the gre is almost 10 points over. But GMAT helps in rankings, so does that mean someone with GMAT 760 vs someone with a GRE 335, the one with GMAT will be given priority ?
No, you are looking way to into this difference. The GMAT and GRE are not to be compared in this way. It's not an apples-to-apples matter. There is no priority for a high GRE score over a high GMAT score. See my previous point.
3. While all the schools say that both the scores are treated alike, there can be an unsaid bias towards GMAT. That said, at what score does the GRE act as attractive ?
I am sorry but I cannot validate that unsaid bias.
