NO, the GMAT is like CAT. it gets you into the radar of the college but that's all it does. Might even help with amount of scholarship/loan awarded but that's about it.

I think he was talking about whether people scoring very high marks in GMAT make better leaders in the industry?
Don't think he was talking about colleges or admissions or applications per se..

My answer highlighted what the GMAT can do/does for you. As with all competitive tests, it is in no way an indicator of your potential as a manager.
I'm sure your CAT experience would have showed you that :-p | | | | | | | |

The score plays no role in how you pan out as a manager. Its not even that important a part of your application(except when it comes to loan) A little more research would show that  | | | | | The Following 2 Users Say NO Thank You to Neo2000 For This Un-useful Post: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
