Chicago MSFM GRE Score submission when Optional

[ShreyanshL]

Hello everyone,

I recently took the GRE and scored a 161 on Verbal and 167 on the Quant. I was wondering if this score is worth sending to UChicago for the MSFM program since they state that the GRE is Optional for this cycle.

Also, is this score competitive for CMU MSCF and UCLA MFE?

Lastly, Georgia Tech QCF and UCB MFE state that the GRE is waived if you have a 3.7 UGPA from a US University. I did a CS/Business double major from a top 15 US University and have a 3.93 GPA. Should I retrospectively send these scores in, since I submitted my app 4-5 days ago?

I submitted my 166Q, 159V to all schools. I think a 166Q and above can’t hurt you personally, but every program is different

Hey, I scored 161 in Quant and got into UChicago with 60% scholarship. I took it without studying because my university exams demanded a lot of preparation.

In my opinion, if you have a strong quantitative background thru your school+experience you'll get it.
