710 (Q 49, V 39), possible retake?

Hi everyone,

Just took the GMAT last week and got a 710. I am somewhat disappointed with my verbal score of 39 because I had been scoring in the 40s on most practice exams.

Would it at all be worth it or does it matter at all to retake the exam and try to increase my score to a 730? I will most likely apply to schools like HBS or Chicago in 2 to 3 years.

Thanks for any help or advice,

I really appreciate it

Retaking the GMAT would be useless if you dont improve the score by atleast 50 points. So if you are confident that you will achieve 760, go ahead if you feel. Else leave it.

710 is a very good score. Wont be much of a value addition if you do retake it. Advice you to work on the other aspects of you application instead.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
