Scored 700, but low quant...take it again? [#permalink] New post 19 Dec 2011, 15:28
Hi,

I scored a 700, but my quant was only a 44, and the verbal a 41. I know the quant score is low for me, but should I take the test again?

I am applying to top 15 schools for the January rounds. I have completed Columbia and Duke's applications already, but do you think it would be wise for me to take the test again within the next few weeks? I know the top schools prefer the 80%-80% breakdown, and currently I am at 70%-90%. Please let me know your opinion.

Thanks

Depends on your academic background - if it's engineering, math, economics, etc. it will be a concern but not fatal. If you were a liberal arts major, it would be a big enough concern.

Also, I was a Business Major at the University of Maryland's Smith School of Business, with A's in all math, statistics, finance, and accounting courses.

I also work for a large international stock exchange company.

I think you should apply now rather than thinking of giving test again.
