<p>I know I should look around in the MBA forum but...I peeked in and decided to come here instead.</p>
<p>Son just took the GMAT. This is so different from the SAT/ACT/AP experience, during which I was a walking encyclopedia of information, statistics, etc. I've deliberately kept my distance this time, mostly because the guy doesn't need my help.</p>
<p>But now that the test is over and he has his scores, the need to know has kicked in again. A quick search yields the percentile. Looks really good to me. I think. But beyond that, I don't know!</p>
<p>So those who have been through this or had a child go through MBA applications: how important are GMAT scores? What else should I know?</p>
<p>ETA: Cumulative score is 740</p>
