I didn’t take ACT or SAT and did fine, although my gpa is high
What was ur gpa range if u don’t mind me asking
3.9, major in physics, math, and chemistry with a minor in data analytics.
Anyone else have input
no vertification at all.
Take it with a grain of salt, but I've heard that as long as you have above a 3.5 and a decent test score, you get looks from most funds (aside from some of the more elitist ones like H&F). Group you're in has a big impact on the types of looks you'll be getting.
Second this. Your group matters the most
Bump
Are test scores necessary? What’s the threshold for MFs? Would it be worth retaking tests if I’m not at the threshold?
It’s basically all dependent on
1) what group you’re in (coverage groups do the best)
2) what school you went to
3) how well you do in your intro call with recruiter also the main dealbreaker / maker
When we are taking test scores, are ACT/SAT fine? Or is having a high GMAT/GRE also helpful?
