Basically the above, I got a 48Q but I thought I could bring a scientific calculator in. I have a 2.4/4.0 undergrad so I'm curious if bumping to say a 770 would have a meaningful effect on my application.
I figure I could also put in more work into SC since that was by far my worst verbal section.

Hi Fluidmosaic,
First off, a 740/Q48 is an outstanding score (it's just shy of the 99th percentile overall), so you can comfortably apply to any Business School with this score. As such, a retest is almost certainly not necessary. You have to remember that Business Schools are looking for strong OVERALL applicants and no GMAT score (not even an 800) will guarantee you anything. Since you have a fantastic score 'locked up' you should concentrate on the other areas of your application(s).
1) What Schools are you planning to apply to?
2) When are you planning to apply?
As an aside, how far did you get into your Official GMAT before you learned that you could not have a calculator with you in the Computer Lab?
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Regarding my score, I just was wondering if going higher would accommodate my undergrad GPA.
1. I'm not sure if anything out of Kellogg/Booth/Harvard/Stanford will make sense since I currently want to work in the Midwest and I'll probably end up working in a MBA type job after I graduate law school. This also means I probably won't end up getting an MBA due to my undergrad GPA.
2. I'm probably applying for my MBA in 2019 or 2020.
I actually tried to bring it in. The front desk lady told me I couldn't and I asked her if Pearson provided calculators.
