You can take quant/verbal before the sections that don't matter as much. Burns you out less of you don't have to do those first

like

"1. Analytical Writing Assessment, Integrated Reasoning, Quantitative, Verbal (original order)
2. Verbal, Quantitative, Integrated Reasoning, Analytical Writing Assessment
3. Quantitative, Verbal, Integrated Reasoning, Analytical Writing Assessment"

I'm expecting score inflation...should have waited

So annoyed I didn't have this option. I would assume schools adjust their score targets then

Hmm I wonder what option I should pick

If score inflation is predicted, is there in your opinion a single optimal choice or just the flexibility of playing to strengths and picking your personal best option?

Why is score inflation predicted?

There most definitely will not be score inflation.. GMAC has heavily tested this proposition for years

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!
