Hi Raed,

Thanks for your post. In regards to Stanford and UCLA, 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
