I’m taking the GMAT in September and would like to include my score on my applications to other firms. Based on what I’m getting in practice, it would significantly improve my resume. However, I heard many firms, particularly MBB, have hiring windows in August, so applying later would hurt my chances. Is this true, and if so, when should I apply? Is it possible to apply earlier and then fill in the recruiter on my GMAT score while I’m in the process?

So you want to take the GMAT not because you want to grad school, but just to apply to other firms?

Could be much better things to do with that time imo.

KPMG1, I’m taking it in person. My test center confirmed they’re still doing it in person, with masks required. Only the online GMAT has no retakes; regular in-person GMAT has standard retake procedures.

Anyone has seen any impact on conversion rates?

Anyone think I made a mistake not staying until senior? 40+% raise seems rare.
