Just took the exam this morning. I had to deal with some issues so only prepped about 10 hours total in the couple days before the exam (sentence correction questions only). Didn't have time to take ANY practice exams.

My verbal was 96%tile and math 84%tile. My question is whether adcoms (at HSW) will care about quant score for engineers like me. For example, if they see A+'s in differential equations and linear algebra from a top 5 university with deflated grades (you can guess), will they just ignore a weaker quant?

Overall happy considering the amount of effort I put into this, but still dissapointing knowing that I could have easily gotten 760+ with some math prep. But I feel that for top engineers, only the verbal score really matters.
