刚看到的一段采访top 10 US MBA Admissions Director的话（不过是03年的一段BW的采访），摘录如下，仅供参考： Q: How important is the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) score in an application?
L: The GMAT is just one of the many things that we look at. I often tell applicants that it's most important to look at the range of accepted GMATs rather than just the average GMAT. The range at Tuck usually is between about 530 and 800, and last year's average was 695.
We are looking at a holistic application, and the GMAT is just one data point. We obviously want to make sure that every student will be successful academically. The GMAT is one of many indicators that help predict academic success. We're looking at many things in every application -- we look for clear examples of leadership, of teamwork, of strong interpersonal skills and academic success.
Q: What percentage of applicants with GMAT scores above the median are rejected?
L: I would strongly encourage applicants to not be so fixated on GMAT! While it's something we look at, it isn't the be-all, end-all of the application. There are times when applicants take the GMAT multiple times in hopes of improving their score by 10, 20, or 30 points. The reality is, that small margin will not make that application successful or unsuccessful.
Each applicant should concentrate on providing a clear, holistic picture of who they are as an applicant, and that includes what they've achieved, what they could bring to a classroom, what they hope to do. Ultimately, we're looking for people who will be contributing members to Tuck and to society.
