Choosing MBA schools for sending GMAT scores.

by stanleyeales » Sat Aug 20, 2011 2:34 am
I currently have no work experience and plan to apply for only HBS 2+2 and possibly Yale in a few months. I wanted to know if I could still send my GMAT scores to other programs for which i intend to apply after 2 years in case i do not get into HBS/Yale. Will they just keep the scores in their databases until I apply ?
Also, since my only resource is internet, it seems very difficult to choose which MBA schools are right for me. I also have to select some schools as my safety net.

Dear stanleyeales,

You do not have to send your scores anywhere; it is really up to you at the time you take the exam. You can always send your scores later as the scores are good for 5 years. There is usually a minimal cost to send the scores at a later date, but perhaps it is worthwhile if you are unsure where else to send them. Since scores are good for 5 years, schools will usually keep your scores in their files awaiting a future application until they expire.

Good luck,
Lisa

Thank you for the information. Could you please suggest some programs for me in top 30 b-schools that admit relatively high proportion of young students? I've heard MIT is one of these programs.
