The GMAT (or an accepted equivalent) is required for the EDHEC Master in Management Grande École. EDHEC accepts the GMAT, GRE, TAGE-MAGE, CAT, and — for the Finance track — CFA Level 2 as the standardised-test component of the application. It does not publish a class average score. Applicants sharing results on GMAT Club have reported admits with a GMAT around 650 and a GRE of 161Q/145V, and the Kira pre-recorded video interview is standard for direct-entry applicants.
EDHEC Business School does not publish a GMAT range.
