Hey everyone!
Just finished giving my GMAT exam. The results were lower than expected. I also won't be able to give the tests anytime soon since I'll be focusing on other aspects of the application procedure. I'll be going to school in Fall 2023, for MiM or equivalent courses. Below mentioned are scores, do let me know which score should be used for the following schools:
1. GRE score - 325 (Q170 V155 AWA4) - Jan 2020
2. GMAT score - 690 (Q51 V31 IR7) - Aug 2022
Schools: HEC Paris, Insead, EESEC, LBS, Duke (FUQUA), Michigan (Ross), UCLA, MIT(Sloan), Rotmann, Ivey Business School, Sauders (UBC), HEC Montreal, Schulich.
Any insights, any thoughts, any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Please consider me an absolute newbie.

Hi
Great score BTW. Especially that Q170 on the GRE
There is NOt a hard rule.
All the school you mentioned accept both. See out Average GRE score at top BS here https://gre.myprepclub.com/forum/average-g ... 27792.html
It all depends what is your goal. If you are going specifically for an MBA I would pick the GMAT. Otherwise also the GRE is good.
I do not see much difference between them because at a closer look you are quite strong on quant but verbal in both tests should be improved: V31 and V155 are decent but not in the upper percentile.
Again, it all DEPENDS ON YOUR FINAL GOAL.
ALSO, rx10 could share some hint more.
regards

Hey Shivangi,
Welcome to the club! Also congratulations on your score. Q170! Nice
I had a similar score in both exams when I applied, however, I was planning to go for MBA. Also with 325, I got into UNC.
You should be good with using both the scores. However, some schools permit that you submit both scores. That being said, your Q170 will surely be a cherry on top and when it gets converted to the equivalent GMAT, it becomes 710 so your GRE score should be the one to go for. (IMO
) You should also ask the adcoms in their coffee chats for clarification.
Let me know if I can help you further.
