Predictions cannot be made in regard to the admissions because it depends on the number of students applying. It also depends on the number of students applying with GMAT/GRE score, how many credits students without a GMAT/GRE result have, how many places each programme has per year, and these may fluctuate from year to year. However, we can say that if you have a GMAT/GRE score of 350 and above you have increased your chances of being admitted.
Please note that a GRE score is transferred to a GMAT score, see GRE® Comparison Tool for Business Schools
