He will make a very good interviewee! If he can get to the interview, he is getting into HBS!
Best of luck!

Hi, this candidate should apply to Georgetown McDonough School of Business--as this business school is a pipeline to multilateral financial institutions like the World Bank and the IMF. Furthermore, Washington, D.C. provides great access to professional networks! Good luck to this young man!

NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED BUT IN THE COMMENT BELOW, IGNORE THE CROSS-OUT, READ THE FULL MESSAGE IN CAPS.
TO WIT YOU CAN TAKE THE GRE OR GMAT THE DAY BEFORE THE DEADLINE AND SEND UNOFFICIAL SCORE WITH YOUR APPLICATION. BE SURE TO HAVE THE OFFICIAL SCORE SENT SOON AFTER THAT.

HBS GURU HERE: THE ISSUE OF RETAKING GRE/GMAT AND SUBMITTING THE SCORES AFTER THE DEADLINE CAME UP IN THE INTERVIEW, HERE IS WHAT HBS OFFICIALLY SAYS. 1. YOU MUST TAKE THE GRE/GMAT BEFORE THE DEADLINE BUT YOU CAN SUBMIT THE UNOFFICIAL SCORE WITH YOUR APP. AND SEND OFFICIAL SCORE IN AFTER THE DEADLINE--SO YOU CAN TAKE GMAT (AGAIN IN THIS GUY'S CASE) DAY BEFORE DEADLINE AND SUBMIT UNOFFICIAL SCORE WITH OFFICIAL SOCRE TO FOLLOW -- HERE IS WHAT HBS SAYS EXACTLY
Can I take the GMAT or GRE after the April 27, 2023 2+2 application deadline?
No, you must take the GMAT or GRE by the application deadline and submit your score with your application. Unofficial scores are acceptable at the time of application, but every applicant must request to have their official score submitted to HBS. You do not need to have the results of the AWA section of the GMAT or GRE in order to apply; however, we do expect you to complete this portion of the exam and we will require an AWA score for anyone admitted to the program.
