Discrepancy btwn Verbal & Quant though high overall score

by hydie.kim Tue Sep 21, 2010 9:51 am

Do top 10 business schools care if there is a discrepancy between your Verbal and Quant scores? If yes, what would you say is a significant discrepancy?

Personally, I scored in the 82nd percentile for Quant and 99th for Verbal, with an overall score in the 99th percentile.

Hi Hydie,

A balanced score is generally seen as a good thing, but since you passed the 80th percentile in both categories I wouldn't worry about it. After all, you're in the overall 99 percentile, so there's not much space for you to go up!

Good luck!
