162Q but 154V :/ on GRE applying to T20-T15 and hopefully with Deloitte sponsorship. Will this be sufficient to check the boxes? Schools I’m targeting are Ross, Cornell tech, NYU tech mba, Anderson, fuqua, McCombs

I would aim higher on your total GRE score us not yet at the averages of some of these schools. Although, seeing you have received sponsorship is a strong indicator for a high performer, which is something all AdComs look for.

smart

Cool thanks! Taking it again this week; just hoping that my first score is a solid base point in case I don’t improve
