will you show your GMAT score to a potential employer during a job interview just to let them know that they shouldn't judge you based on which school you are attending now (or graduated from)?
*I understand that a person's GMAT score isn't the most important aspect to getting a job. However, by showing a potential employer that you are just as academically gifted as a person who attended a prestigious B-school will definitely help your chances of being hired. Correct?

I'm not talking about putting the score down on a resume. I'm talking about mentioning the score DURING a job interview. Will that help?

I wouldn't include it on your resume. If you did well in B-school, then only put the gpa and the area of expertise on your resume. Attending a prestigious B-school is definitely impressive to have on your resume, but if that isn't your reality, then focus on your other strong points and sell yourself as the best person for the job. An employer would rather hire a person who is smart with the right skills, and a good work history and ethic over someone that only has a ivy league school on their resume with no other attributes.

It can't hurt to show a good GMAT score. Anything that might help you on a resume should be put on the resume.

I've never heard of anyone putting their GMAT score on a resume. Sounds incredibly tacky to me. Do you put your SAT score too? How about what you scored on your DMV road test?

Hi Is better to do online education! Since I am doing my MBA in online California University of technology which helps me to pursue MBA degree and at a same time, I am working in private company. While I finish my degree I will gain my experience too. Online education is more flexible we can learn whenever we want and wherever we like to study. If I can work mean you too will have time to go regular school too.

It doesn't sound helpful. They don't really care how academically gifted you are/were -- only what you can contribute to their organization. Focus on that, instead.
