GMAT exam curve
Hi, I understand that schools take the highest GMAT score. However do they form a negative or positive opinion by looking at the GMAT curve, i.e. 600 -> 650 -> 680 -> 730 (+ve) 670 -> 720 > 660 (-ve) 680 -> 700 -> 650 -> 700 (+ve or -ve or neutral ?) 640 -> 710 -> 680 -> 730 (+ve or neutral ?)

Hey, Believe me you can hit 700 with the kind of practice test scores that you have. I would say that on exam day, just relax and treat the exam as just another episode, think that your life is not solely dependent on it. Take a deep breath before you start. Do not think of the end result at the beg...

Which IR/AWA will schools consider ?
If someone has taken the GMAT twice and the scores are as follows:
GMAT1 (700): Q-49, V-35, IR-6.0, AWA-6.0
GMAT2 (660): Q-48, V-31, IR:8.0, AWA-5.5
Which IR/AWA scores will the schools take ? I understand that they take the highest GMAT score but how does that relate to IR/AWA ?

Recommender Selection
Do B-schools make it mandatory for students to choose a current supervisor in an organization as a recommender or are past supervisors also ok to get recommendations from ? Is there a disadvantage in that case if someone does not want to involve the immediate supervisor due to job considerations ?

In my opinion it makes more sense not to retake it since you are very well placed within the middle 80% in quite a few of the top B-schools. If you do not have a specific school in mind, there is a realistic chance for a good admission and that chance can be broadened if you have a good overall appl...
