Math 80% threshold

by ksc1940 » Tue Jul 31, 2012 11:16 pm
For the top schools, it seems like breaking 80% quant is CRITICAL. This is especially true with the finance heavy programs like wharton, sloan, columbia, booth. I heard that a raw score of 48, which used to be around 81-83%, is now 78%. Is this true? If so, this means that I would need to get a raw score of 49 to pass the threshold.

This page will give you all of the raw score conversions: https://www.mba.com/the-gmat/gmat-scores ... means.aspx

As you can see, a raw score of 48 is in the 78th percentile, and a raw score of 49 is in the 83rd percentile.
