Hi,

Do most of the schools consider GMAT score validity at time of application submission or at the time of start of the course? For example I took GMAT in Dec 2008, which although is valid till R1 ISB submission deadline (15 Sep 2013) but is invalid at the start of the course which is Mar 2014. In this case ISB will not consider the score. What is the case of majority of the schools? specially oxford, Cambridge? Thanks
