Need help in evaluation

by sarah_n78 » Thu Aug 13, 2009 6:48 am
My target schools are:

HBS
Yale SOM
NYU Stern
MIT Sloan

I have 5.5 years of work experience, master's degree in computer science with GPA 3.38 and number of community service experiences.

I have not taken the GMAT as yet but will soon take it.

What is the minimum GMAT score that the B Schools that I have mentioned above look for ?

Thanks.

Dear sarah_n78,

Generally speaking, you want to score in the mid-50% range for your target schools. If you can score at or above the average, then you are in the best competitive position for that school in terms of the GMAT. Please note: decisions are made on more than the GMAT so you want to be sure to submit a strong, overall application.

Best of luck,
Lisa
