Ask the Test Maker

Hello,

I have taken the GMAT and submitted my scores to my target schools. If I retake the GMAT and do not submit the new scores to those schools, will they see the retake score along with the original score sent to them? I am fairly happy with my first score, and I want to make sure that if I did retake and did worse then the schools I have already submitted my scores to will not see them.

Thanks for any help!

Schools you have selected to receive your GMAT score report will see your FULL score report, which includes all of your GMAT scores within the five year period. So, yes, they will see both scores. Many schools choose to only use the highest GMAT score in admissions decisions, so you may want to contact those schools to find out their policies.

Thanks for the question!

So as such I would not need to send any new scores to schools I sent prior scores to, and I could use the five free score reports at all new schools correct?

Thanks for the help!
