GMAT Strategy

The Graduate Management Admission Council® (GMAC®) is offering you an exclusive, invitation only opportunity to participate in a pilot program to explore a new option to the GMAT® exam testing experience.

This pilot gives you an opportunity to retake the GMAT exam with the ability to choose the order of the exam sections. You will be able to choose from four options of section orders:

Quantitative, Verbal, Integrated Reasoning, Analytical Writing Assessment
Quantitative, Verbal, Analytical Writing Assessment, Integrated Reasoning
Verbal, Quantitative, Integrated Reasoning, Analytical Writing Assessment
Analytical Writing Assessment, Integrated Reasoning, Verbal, Quantitative
The testing period of this pilot is limited and is expected to run from February 23 - March 8, 2016. Exact test dates will vary depending on test center availability and other logistics of the program. Normal registration fees apply.

VERY interesting development.
Since schools place less value on IR and AWA scores, I'd go with options 1, 2 or 3, and complete the quant and verbal sections first, while I'm still fresh.
