OK - you've taken the test but you don't feel so great about your performance. What should you do?

GMAT Score:750

Well, the bad news is, your score will automatically show up for the next five years along with any subsequent sittings for the GMAT, so even if you elect not to send the score to a school, when you do it next time, your score will be there. if this was your first sitting, don't worry. The good news is, even though schools see older, poorer scores, they will only consider your top score, so it shouldn't hurt you if you improve the next go-round.

The school is able to see also the score or just the fact that you have canceled it? If yes,why anyone should cancel own score?

I think I mis-interpreted your post. If you cancel your score while at the testing facility, it will not show up on your record if i am not mistaken. You can check with GMAC to be sure.
