Hi,

I took the GMAT a few days ago and scored very low (520), with a very low quant score. In my last simulation (GMATprep 4), I scored 700.
Needless to say I am abit discouraged by this result. I thought it might be a better idea to take GRE instead. I would like to use the score to apply to a top10 business school. I have no quantitative experience, but my profile is excellent otherwise.
I already submitted the GMAT score to the business schools I would like to apply to. My question is, if I do the GRE next instead of the GMAT, and get a good socre, would that hurt my chances?

Thanks,
timtim

Hi timtim,

Thanks for your post. In regards to your exam and your practice scores, I would recommend retaking your GMAT exam. It's important to remember that your highest GMAT score is self-reported on your application, so admissions teams will focus on your best score. There is no harm in taking the exam again.

If you'd like, we provide free GMAT advice here: https://www.stacyblackman.com/test-prep-hub/

I hope the above is of help.

Cheers,
Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team
