Hi all as the topic states, just took the GMAT and scored a Q49 V40...disappointing considering I haven't scored under a V44 (V44-V47) on any of the six GMATprep practice exams. Verbal timing was definitely an issue, I wasn't expecting 5 long RC.
I have low undergrad GPA (3.1, engineering - large stage school) and a 3.5 MS in engineering from an IVY. My target schools are H/S/W so I assume I need to retake and get my score up. Thoughts?

Canceled a 730?! I would have gladly kept that. If you get into HSW, it’s not going to be because you went from 730 to 760. It’ll be because of your work experience, leadership, and extracurriculars.

Hi SynPo800,
You can always pay to reactivate this Score later on - so the issue about whether cancelling this Score was "right" or "wrong" is moot. The broader question is what type of Score YOU would need to get into the Schools that you listed. Highly-competitive Schools look for applicants with a high GMAT Score AND a strong OVERALL profile. In addition, you have to properly 'market yourself' to each individual Program that you apply to. Thus, there's a lot more to discuss than whether this Score is strong enough or not (but for the record, with a 730/Q49, you can comfortably apply to any Business Schools that interest you).
You're ultimately asking Admissions questions, so you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:
