GMAT Score 680- Retake?

by qwerty12321 » Thu Jun 19, 2014 3:43 am
I took the GMAT today and got a score of 680 ( IR-8, Verbal -34, Quant-49 )
Do I need to retake the GMAT if I plan on applying to HBS, Yale, MIT, Stanford and ISB YLP?

Hi there,

For best chances I would certainly encourage it. ;) Plus schools take the highest score, and a second try is quite common, so not a lot to lose if you are up for it! If you did better on practice tests, too, that is just another reason to try once more. Good luck!
