What if I score lower on the retake?

by chelseablue » Wed Jul 31, 2013 5:53 am
Hi,

I scored a 630 on my GMAT in my first attempt 2 years ago and I am retaking the GMAT next week.In none of my practice test have I scored more than a 630. Scored a 600 on my first GMATPrep and 610 on my 2nd GMATPrep test.Does it reflect badly if my second attempt is lower than my first? Should I just cancel my exam, there's no chance of a refund. I cannot postpone as I won't be able to take off work to study.So if you're in the adcom what would you make of someone whose GMAT score reduces after a gap of 2 years?

Regards.

#1) Get the negative thoughts out of your head. Don't think about the downside.

#2) No, they will look at the higher score.

Good luck!
