Hi all,

I need some advice....I have just retaken the GMAT and gotten a 720 total score (47Q, 42V), up from 640.

At the start of the test, in the middle of the IR section, the monitor in the centre disconnected and I lost time while I reconnected it.Because of this lost time, I was not able to finish the IR section and got a score of 4 (37th percentile). Previously I had gotten in the 90th percentile for IR.

Can you tell me how serious a problem this is? Are IR scores looked at in reality?

I am very happy to have obtained a 720 and would prefer not to retake for fear of doing worse....

HELP!! Thanks....

I would say that your previous IR score will count for something. You got 90th percentile before and this time although you score was very low - it was not a disastrous 0, 1 or 2.

In your place I doubt that I would retake the exam. You have a GREAT score of 720 and your previous IR score in the 90th percentile will also be reported. If you feel the need you can just include a little note with your application indicating the difficulties during that IR section.

Did you do okay on the essay as well?

Congratulations on your score!
