GRE® Option for MBA Admissions Grows

Princeton, N.J. (April 22, 2009) — More than 190 business schools from
across the globe — including many top-ranked global MBA programs — are part
of a growing trend of MBA programs that are seeking to broaden and diversify
their candidate pools by accepting GRE® General Test scores.
Five of the top 10 global MBA programs now accept GRE test scores, according
to the Financial Times’ Global MBA rankings for 2009 and Educational Testing
Service (ETS). These are China Europe International Business School (CEIBS)
中歐國際工商學院(上海), Harvard (2+2 Program)哈佛商學院, Instituto De
Empresa (IE)(馬德里), MIT Sloan麻省理工史隆管理學院 and Stanford史丹佛商學院.
Canada’s Queen's School of Business女皇大學商學院(安大略金士頓), ranked by
BusinessWeek as the best MBA program in the world outside the United States,
also accepts the GRE test.
Last month, Harvard Business School (HBS) announced that it will accept GRE
scores for admission into its 2+2 program.
"The HBS 2+2 program is designed to encourage college juniors — especially
those in majors such as engineering, science and government — to consider
business as a career path," says Deirdre Leopold, Harvard Business School’s
Managing Director of Admissions and Financial Aid. “Since the GRE is the
test these students are most familiar with on the road to graduate school, we
are pleased to offer it as an alternative option to the GMAT®."
In addition, MBA programs cite institutional competitiveness and student
access to GRE test centers as practical reasons for accepting GRE test
scores. But it is the current global economy and the GRE test’s inherent
ability to support programs’ diversity goals that creates the most appeal,
according to David Bach, Associate Dean of MBA programs at Instituto de
Empresa (IE) Business School.
“As the financial crisis deepens, new approaches are needed to rebuild
global financial systems and to uncover opportunities for creating value in
business and society,” says Bach. “Business schools must look to diverse
participants to engage in this process. And we find the GRE test an excellent
tool to help us meet this objective.”
To help admissions professionals compare GRE and GMAT verbal and quantitative
test scores, ETS introduced the GRE Comparison Tool for Business Schools last
fall. The tool is provided at no cost and is available at
www.ets.org/gre/comparison.
When asked to explain additional reasons for the growing interest in the GRE
exam by MBA programs, ETS Vice President and COO David Payne pointed to the
introduction of the ETS® Personal Potential Index (ETS® PPI) slated for
July 2009.
“Professional and graduate schools, especially MBA programs, place high
value on critical personal attributes like ethics and resilience,” explains
Payne. “As a tool designed to measure these skills, ETS PPI has drawn a lot
of attention from graduate and professional programs that are seeking to
recruit the very best and brightest.”
ETS PPI is a web-based evaluation system that offers reliable information on
six personal attributes that graduate and business school deans and faculty
have identified as essential to success in advanced study. The six attributes
are: Knowledge and Creativity; Communication Skills; Teamwork; Resilience;
Planning and Organization; and Ethics and Integrity. Beginning in July, ETS
PPI will be available for GRE General Test registrants at no additional cost,
and to other individuals at a cost of $20 per report.
