Hello, I’m looking to apply to London Business School. My GPA was low due to mental health issues(cumulative 2.9). Would it look better to take the GMAT vs the GRE to make up for my low GPA?

LBS has stated they don’t have a preference. I’m taking the GRE because it plays to my strengths more. Pick the one in which you’ll do better

I have been looking at the curriculums for Harvard Business School's Master of Business Administration and Harvard Extension School's Master's in Management. They both have the same requirements, generally speaking, including a field immersion course that serves as a capstone in the Master's in Management, which is fairly new. If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
