GMAT as senior in college?

Anyone here do the GMAT as a college senior? Starting a BB banking job next year and planning to do 2 years IB 2 years PE then school, and assumed I won’t have time to study for the gmat while working. Anyone have experience with this? I believe that scores last for 5 years, but I could always retake it if I don’t do well.

Probably its a dumb question but could you tell me why you would go for an MBA when you are already in PE? What doors does it open?

 

I took it senior year of college to apply for 2+2 programs and it lasted 5 years. Applied this past year with a 4.5 year old score and worked out fine.
