Hi everyone,
I understand that the official MBA guide website posts averages and not medians and I know that a median is a better indicator of admission prospects, however, I wanted to ask the Beatthegmat community if this list is valid at all. If the list posed here is true, then Harvard is closer to Goergetown rather than Stanford in terms of GMAT score flexibility (in that they are willing to accept lower scoring applicants even though it lowers their average regardless of the effect on median)

What do you all think? Is this list valid at all? I just find it hard to believe that Harvard is ranked so low in terms of GMAT average. If it is true, I guess that they do adhere to a holistic admission process.![Image]()
