no real downside imo. you will have much more time to do it now than once you start in IB, so knock it off and then apply to bschool in 2-4 yrs.

i suppose the only downside is that many firms will supplement a portion of the costs for a GMAT class if you decide to take one.

 

Seems like a great idea. You'll likely be applying before the end of the 5 year window. It would be great to get out of the way while you have the time. I've never heard of anyone being penalized for a stale test result.
