There should be a GMAT to GRE calculator somewhere online. Use those numbers as equivalent

Yep! I saw that. Schools don't report GRE numbers, so I wanted to see if they're cool with GRE scores lower than the typical GMAT equivalent

like

They aren't equivalent, some schools will take a much lower gre as they are not reported as broadly. I'd suggest taking both and see what you do best on. I got a 321 and had admits to 3 top 20 schools.

A lot of people, I believe. But are talking about an MBA or any masters program under the B school?

MBA

Curious to hear what people's scores were and where they got in

Thanks D1! I'm currently scoring around 320, so that makes me feel better 😊 Where did you end up going?

EY 1 what was your score?

That's not good

However, at times, it feels the communication is coerced and there is a lack of rapport. Anyone else struggle with this? Thanks!
