Hi,
I'm a 29 years old Mechanical Engineer from Venezuela, with a Msc. in Petroleum Geology (which I did in China), and 5 years of international experience within the field of Energy.
I've recently received my official GMAT scores and I got Q50, V31, IR5, and AWA3.5, for a score of 690.
I'm planning to apply to MIT, Ross and USC during round 2. However, I'm concerned about my low AWA score. I know it was because of my nerves and I'm sure I can do better in this section but I'm not so confident about repeating my success in quant. I wouldn't like to retake the test, but, should I do it? Would such a low AWA hurt my application? What can I do to fix this negative mark in my profile?
Thanks for your responses

Well,
Although the AWA score should be higher, it's not the thing that will "Tank" your application. On the other hand, and especially for MIT, if you could ALSO score 30/40 more points on the main score, it would be worth your while to do so.
Best,
Jon
