Submitting Scores to B Schools

by Perminology » Tue Nov 17, 2009 9:37 pm
Hi all,

My test day is this coming Saturday. I have a list of schools that I want to attend and heard that I can report the scores to my schools directly after taking the test. Supposedly it saves you money, because Pearson charges you $28 per submission after the test? So I'm wondering how it is done. Does Pearson give you a list of schools that you can pick or is there another way of submitting directly after the test? Thanks in advance!

hi,

A small correction here. We can submit scores to schools only before starting the test (This is for free). So, you cannot report your score to schools after taking the test and seeing the scores. If i'm not wrong, you can choose around 4-5 schools. Its better to choose 2 top 10 schools, 1 top 50 school, 2 top 100 schools to make sure that you atleast report to 1-2 schools whatever score you get.

Yes, Pearson gives a list of schools from which you can choose to apply.

However, you can apply to schools after your test but it will cost some dollars.
