Normally, schools request that you submit transcripts for all degree bearing programs so I would follow that guidance without further guidance from Stanford.

You most certainly will need to retake as I'm sure you know. I would recommend an instructor or a class given how low your score is. There are many services like Veritas Prep that offer both in person and distance courses for your GMAT Prep

Things have certainly changed in the last 5-10 years. Most top MBA programs including INSEAD will accept the GRE, if you do well then you should be good here. One thing to note, this is from the INSEAD website: In countries where the GMAT test is not offered, we will accept a GRE test instead. Simil...

Living in NYC and hiring in NYC I have seen way more Baruch MBA/MS students in the workforce or interviewing. I'm not sure if that is a result of the career center or the students but Baruch business students are more highly visible than Fordham students in my experience

Thanks for sharing your profile. Really strong work experience but with your target schools your GMAT is simply not high enough. Those schools are all hovering around 720 these days leaving you well below a competitive score for these schools. So I would recommend a retake

Thanks for sharing your profile. You have a solid profile that should be competitive at the listed schools. Now your GMAT is a bit low for some of the schools so an improved GMAT would do you lots of good here, so if you have the time and think you can improve then I would go for it. I would aim for...

They probably cannot check, this would seem to be an odd thing to be dishonest about, so try and keep things factual if possible. But they would not have a real reason to know that unless you claimed you were working when you were not employed

Thanks for sharing your profile. You have a nice profile particularly your work experience. Your GMAT is about at the avg or a bit lower than the schools you are targeting but close enough. This will not be an area that will put you over the top so if you can bump this score up a bit it would help y...

Given your years of experience an EMBA feels like it might make more sense. I doubt you are planning to make a career switch so an EMBA feels like an even better fit. Have you looked into this option yet?

You are a very unique case and I def want to salute you on all of your perseverance through all of the tough times. You are really impressive!

You have the right international experience and a strong GPA with solid work experience so you could potentially be in play. Your GMAT will play a role in this so make sure you are hitting or exceeding the avg score to keep yourself competitive at INSEAD

I think you will be fine on the GMAT side but your GPA is a bit too low for most of these programs. You may want to reach out to them directly and have a discussion on if they have GPA cut offs or are these just guidelines
