I have read that universities try to diversify their MBA classes. Like, they would choose the top scoring indians, the top scoring chinese etc. Though, the admission depends on a lot of factors, including your exeprience etc., but rest all being equal, would anyone know, what can be the average GMAT score for indians admitted to Wharton, let's say with 4-5 years experience? I am sure, it is higher then the (US News) average score 712 for Wharton

Thanks a lot,

Dear sam77,

Schools do not break down GMAT scores or other measures by subgroups, so there is no way to definitely know (unless you work in Wharton's admissions office). However, I would venture to guess that the applicants from India that are offered admission probably have GMAT scores over a 700. There might be a few in the 670-700 range, but most probably fall over a 700.

Regards,
Lisa

Thank you Lisa,
I was concerned because of this Interview with Graham Richmond - Former Admissions Consultant from Wharton.
He mentioned "For example, if you're a male engineer from India, you're competing against a lot of people with similar backgrounds and your GMAT score will therefore be that much more important in distinguishing you as an applicant."

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
