GMAT vs GPA

by anhe123 » Sat Aug 07, 2010 8:46 am
I am a last year student at a Swedish university, Uppsala, and am finishing my double bachellor in Business and Commercial Law.

I have been doing quite a few things outside of school, starting several companies and running Sweden's largest youth organization amongst other things, and have been putting in a lot of work at school in order to finish both my degrees.

My grades (GPA around 2.5) however, are not close to the Median GPAs I see at the top business schools I want to apply to next year (not for an MBA but an MSc in Management or similar).

Is it possible to get in to a good masters program without a really strong GPA if you have a strong GMAT score (just over 700)?

Sincerely
André
