Looks like the chinese and indian math whizzes taking the GMAT continue to make our lives more difficult. According to the latest percentile breakdown, a raw quant score of 48 is now 78%; it used to be around 81-83%. A score of 49 is now 83%(used to be 86-87%), and 50 is now just 90%(used to be 94%). For those of you looking at quant heavy MBA programs like wharton/booth/sloan/columbia, breaking the 80% threshold is critical. At wharton and sloan, you're almost an automatic ding if you can't break 80% on quant. So it looks like a raw score of 49 is the new standard.

Just out of curiosity... and this may require some generalizing, but does anyone have insight on how quant heavy MBAs coursework/curriculum compares to that of MSFs (just standard MSF programs, not MFE)?
It's totally annoying. I got 780 on Math SAT back in the day, and 78th percentile on GMAT Quant just a few weeks ago. I think I was having a bad hair day, but still...
