Ultimately, the entire package matters (GMAT, work experience, application essays, interviews, recommendations, and undergraduate GPA). Since you are applying for business school, work experience is extremely important. Upon enrollment, the average amount of work experience for each student is approximately 5 years, which is fairly substantial.

You should also consider the brand of the school. Tuck boasts a tight-knit, team-oriented culture and a strong alumni network. In this sense, your demonstrated ability to contribute to your community is very important. You should be prepared to articulate (both in the application and during the interview) how you have led a group of people to achieve certain aims, worked to achieve consensus between groups, or mentored and coached others in the past. Because “fit” is extremely important for admissions at Tuck, you should make an attempt to visit Dartmouth for an applicant-initiated interview.
