Deferred Admission MBA programs

I'm currently a senior at a target (think Stanford or MIT) and will be joining a prop shop or quant fund after graduation.  I'm thinking about applying to deferred admission MBA programs to hedge myself, but I was wondering how scholarships work in this case.  I have a decent amount of student loans ~100k, so not sure how I would feel taking more lol (although I probably will be debt free at that point or close to it).

Also, FWIW I have taken the GRE 1.5 years ago and it will expire in 3.5 I believe.  Received a 164V/170Q breakdown which "translates" to a 770 GMAT score.  I did not study for the GRE, so should I actually study and take the GMAT?

Thanks in advance
