I am a reapplicant with a 3.65 GPA in engineering for a top 25 ugrad program. My GMAT is 700, do you recommend that I retake the GMAT or focus more on my application?
My goal is to get accepted to a top 7 school.
thanks

GMAT Retake
Stacy,
I was wondering how adcoms will view a lower GMAT the second time around. I know they say they will consider the highest GMAT, but they will see all the GMATs and the last one being lower.
thanks

I was wondering how the admissions commitees views a lower score on the second GMAT. Do they just take the first score, which is the higher score?

Stacy,
I am planning on applying the first round. As you know the GMAT gets harder with every percentile. I think i can get a 720-730 and 750+ will always be my goal. I have already completed my goals essays, and know i am working on the supplemental essays for each school.
thanks
