Doing GMAT in Final Year of Uni?

Thinking about applying to BSchool in a couple of years but I'm thinking that I won't have a lot of time once I'm out of school. I read that the GMAT hold for 5 years and was thinking that it lines up well with a 2-2-2 sequence.... any thoughts? Good to take now? Am I actually really dumb and won't score well because I'm under experienced?

 

Thanks! What schools offer deferred programs? I saw that Warton does - is this looked down on at all while working FT? I feel that some banks would be reluctant to hire knowing that you plan to exit to PE or just plan to leave in 4 years (maybe same once you get to PE side) - or do you just not tell them?
