Took the GMAT. Didn't prepare much. Room was stuffy. Yadda Yadda.
Anyways, scored 750+ (99%). Problem is my quant was only 78%. I know BSchool's wont care, but I was wondering if this might impact future job opportunities.
Every firm i interviewed with wanted to know SAT scores, and several were concerned with breakdowns. I even got asked what was up with my SAT math (97 percentile - this from a super top firm). This might be because I have an otherwise very strong quant background.
Will anyone in the future ever care about GMAT math? Lets do most worrisome case and assume i wanted to interview for a quant desk/hf.
How did you score 750 with 78% in quant? I had 99% verbal and 90% quant and got a 780. So a full 12 extra ticks in quant lands you only 30 more points? Hmm. Honestly, I think 750 is pretty legit no matter how you slice it.
Actually, thats one of the things that doesn't even make sense to me. Based on my scaled score I didn't even absolutely slaughter the verbal ( I was in the lower range of 99% scores). I don't understand why they don't just simplify the scoring system (scaled score out of 100 instead of 60, scores for each section, etc).
Actually, how do companies decide how to score things anyways (why are thins out of 800)? Any psychometricians out there?
You're old enough to go to Bschool, have GMAT scores to report, yet firms still want to know your SATs? That just seems nuts to me.
