GMAT or GRE for PE

Senior in college planning to take GMAT or GRE before I graduate. Deciding between the two, but wondering if either would look good on a resume for oncycle PE recruiting. Assuming GMAT would look better if it matters, but does it matter at all? Or is it just marginal?

I got similar percentiles on each for practice, so this would really be the only decider.
