Should i apply using GRE score?

[shreerajp99]

Hi,
I had appeared for GRE(1420:780 ,640)
in the year 2007.I also gave my GMAT
this October but scored a meagre 620.I
will be having 4 years of experience by
Fall 2012.I saw that many of the good
business schools
(Daerden,Olin,Marshall ,Smith) accept
GRE scores as well.
Should i go ahead and apply using my
GRE score or give another shot at
GMAT?
Thanks in advance,
Shreeraj

Hi Shreeraj,

Thanks for writing in. Indeed the GRE is growing in popularity among schools, though it has not fully "arrived" in my personal opinion as a complete GMAT substitute. Still given the large discrepancy in your GMAT and GRE performance, you should feel comfortable using your GRE score for schools that indicate they are willing to accept that over GMAT.

Best of luck,
