GRE or GMAT? I didn’t take many quant classes (Econ major: econometrics, math classes and stats - 3/4 I got Bs in). Took the GMAT once and scored a 670 and just struggle at cracking the test, and have been thinking of switching to the GRE because it’s easier, but I’m worried my lackluster quant background isn’t a good look.

Other stats: 3.6 from T20 State School (UCLA/Michigan/UVA), consultant, then chief of staff role at mid-size tech company, and now in strategy at brand name startup
