Significance of Math

<p>How bad would a predicted 5 in IB Math HL look to an admissions officer at top business schools such as Wharton and Ross?</p>

<p>I am full candidate at an IB only international school (so there are no APs etc.).</p>

<p>Considering it’s a business school, it’ll put more weight onto math than any other subject, so that will hurt you a lot. They might cut you a little slack since IB is a pretty hard school, but overall, showing an admission officer at a top business school a 5/7 will cost you a lot. But if everything else (grades, ec, cs, rec. letters, awards/honors) is fine, then you will still have a good chance.</p>
