I don't even know what the avg. score is at LBS but I know that you should NOT take the GMAT again. You will never have to take that exam ever again in your life. IF you took it again the AdCom would look at you and say, "Why did this person retake this exam?" They would question your decision making...Do NOT take the exam again.... Not sure if you got that message haha... DO NOT TAKE IT AGAIN.

Just focus on the other areas of your application - essays...interview prep....following up and/or choosing recommenders etc. etc. That stuff is just as important as your GMAT score. The AdCom will look at your GMAT score for 5 seconds and say - "ok great that's not an issue... okay now let's learn about this applicant."

P.S. - Do not take the GMAT again!

Goodness gracious - I think you just angered half the community on this forum asking if you should take the GMATs again after a 760 my friend!

Congratulations on an amazing score! So pat yourself on the back and move along to the rest of your application!

PS - average GMAT score for LBS is 698 or so - so you're FINE :)
