In the current version of GMAT, they actually put IR-type questions into a separate section (Data Insight), which carries equal weight as Quant and Verbal.

Will there be less scrutiny on IR given shift to focus?

If by 770 you mean 715 on FE, it should be much better to focus on your profile, as that is quite a compeitive score and unless incredibly high, will not make a big impact.

I received a 770 on my GMAT but during the IR section, my computer crashed, and I was unable to finish the section leaving me with a 2 on IR. Is it worth retaking the test to bump this up?

I could confidently get a ~750 (or equivalent for the new focus test) and have the time to do so, however, how would ad coms view this? How do they currently view your IR score? Will there be less scrutiny on IR given shift to focus? Targeting GSB/HBS and have strong undergrad / work experience.
