GMAT triumphs over GRE
According to a recent survey from Kaplan Test Prep,just 16 per cent of MBA applicants this year have opted for GRE,others have gone for the tried and tested GMAT.
The main reason for the continued dominance of GMAT,
Kaplan believes,is that students believed that some of their target schools do not accept the GRE (Graduate Record Examination), which is designed as an entry test for all graduate programmes, not just business school. Sixty per cent of those that did not consider the GRE said this was the primary reason for sticking to the GMAT.
Though this belief is not actually true,given that all b-schools do consider and accept both GRE and GMAT scores.But still,appearing for GMAT appears to be a smart choice as GMAT takers do have a slight edge over GRE takers as far as b-school admissions are concerned.
