Does anyone know when to send GMAT and TOEFL scores to business schools?

I wasn't sure if a copy or a self-reported gmat score would be sufficient before an interview decision is issued. There aren't any answers on this anywhere.

More specifically, LBS, Oxford, Cambridge.

Thanks!

Hi Foncia,

Typically, you do not send a copy of GMAT/ TOEFL scores to the school. GMAT / TOEFL scores are directly sent to the universities by the test taking authorities. The reason being - the examination folks do not want anyone to tamper with the scores until they reach the University.

When you started your test, you must have entered 5 schools you wanted to 'apply' to - your scores are directly mailed to these universities.

In case, you change your mind and want to apply to MORE schools, then you have to call up the GMAT/TOEFL authorities, pay additional amount and request them to send the scores to the other schools.

Hope this helps! Good luck.

"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."
