Just curious how schools view multiple scores? Do they take an average of the total score? Do they avg your Q and V scores or do they take your best Q and best V?

I have take the test twice. First Q42 V40, second Q40
V44. Would schools view my best score as Q42 V44?

Most schools look at the highest overall score if you've taken the GMAT twice. Some schools might begin to look at averages etc. if you've taken it more than twice, but you'd have to call the specific schools to find out their policies.

In your case, it looks like your second score is probably higher (Q40, V44), so they would look at that one only.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
