SAT scores and High School GPAs

Question

Has anyone been asked their SAT scores or High School GPAs in the context of B-School? Either during the admissions process for getting into school, or for a job application? Do banks/consulting firms ask for this?

I hope they don't ask for SAT scores as I didn't take the SAT.

I've been told that some consulting firms might ask for SAT scores. I don't know about the banks.

I remember rhyme posting a screenshot of a consulting firm's application. They had asked for SAT/ACT scores, I believe.

i can see SAT coming up, but not high school GPA. there are way more unknowns in hs gpa than ug gpa.

Would the SAT actually be an evaluation point that is looked at, or would it be more of a data point that is hardly used?

Anyone know if banks ask/care?

pelihu · Answer

Yes, some banks (and consulting firms) do ask for SAT scores either as part of their application or employee information form. I don't know exactly what it is used for, and I'm pretty sure it isn't a big factor in recruiting, but they do ask for it.

High school GPA, no, I've never heard of that being brought up.

Shucks, I was hoping for that one. I feel that my HS GPA would be a good indicator of my success in the investment banking division.
