What are the qualities that HBS wants to see in an applicant ?
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 such as HBS look for in an applicant ?

Thanks.

Hello,

Generally you should have a GMAT above 700, though some people with lower GMATs are admitted to HBS and other top progams.

HBS looks for leadership across the board – at school, in the community, and of course at work. Also HBS seems to like to see that you’ve had significant external impact in your endeavors and that you excel in among top achievers. HBS wants to see that you’re someone with “something to say,” particularly because of the case study format.

Best regards,
