Dilemma - Use GRE or GMAT score or both?

[tomahawk86]

Hi

I gave the GMAT a month back and scored 710 (Q-48, V-39). I've also given the GRE (sometime back) and scored 1520 overall (Q-800, V-720).

I want to know:
1) Should I submit both my GRE and GMAT scores to schools that now accept both (and hope it helps).

2) For schools that don't accept GRE scores, and ask for supporting documents etc that would enhance my application, would the GRE score help there?

Or would it be best that I contact each school and ask the above.

Thanks a lot !

Submit both scores for schools that accept both since you did very well on the GMAT and the GRE. However, I doubt it will be helpful to submit GRE score as supporting documentation for schools that don't accept it.

Thanks for posting this! I am in a similar dillema.
I took the GRE a while back and scored 660 but I took the GMAT recently and scored only 610. Should I report only the GRE (to schools that accept it) or go ahead and use GMAT?

I guess my question is are the two tests considered the same or is GMAT weighted heavier (in which case I should use the low GMAT score over the higher GRE score)?

Who! Long winded, but I hope you get my point.
Thanks
