not personal. i took both and used the gmat for mba and gre for phd.

just trying to reflect how adcoms see it because they do care. again just do something as simple as ask chatgpt on this, sounds like you didnt pe1

visiting professor at a top school btw. not trying to troll you all as much as share the reality

Schools are truly test agnostic. Take the test on which you can perform best.
And even the consulting firms and banks are now test agnostic.

I’m a young(ish) male running a private practice. Been with the group a year and a half and haven’t exactly gelled with some of the older employees. We’ve made tremendous financial improvements but in a meeting last night one of the physicians stated, in front of me, maybe we shouldn’t have hired a young guy to run the practice….I can’t think of a more passive aggressive way to ask someone to leave. Thoughts?

Java Microservices Architect with 40 LPA Fixed (12 YOE) at Nagarro. Joined 8 months back. Got an offer from Publicis Sapient of 55LPA (50 Fixed, 5 Variable). I have asked for 60, but that’s out of their budget. I’m thinking of accepting the offer only if 55 is fixed without any variable. What do tou think guys? Is it worth a switch? And is the variable paid fully usually? Thanks in advance for your insights.
