Married couple chances for top programs

by UH-60Driver » Wed Mar 09, 2011 9:40 am
My wife and I are both separating from the US Army next year and shooting for Stanford GSB, Berkeley Haas, or UCLA Anderson. We both took the GMAT with very little prep. With the information below, would it be worthwhile to take the test again or just continue with our current scores? We both need to get into the same program so that adds another dimension to the process.

Me:

USMA West Point
Systems Engineering B.S., 3.82GPA
GMAT 720
AWA 6

Wife:

USMA West Point
Civil Engineering B.S., 3.65 GPA
GMAT 700
AWA 6

Any advice is much appreciated.

I think your GMATs are fine, and you will probably get little marginal benefit from a higher score. You might also consider "family friendly" programs like Duke and Northwestern. Leverage yourselves as a couple as a differentiator--that's a memorable trait for an adcom.
