Frustrated / Requesting for Advice: Took the GMAT Multiple Times

Businessconquerer, thanks for the advice

scott, just sent you PM

Hi happygoluck,

To start, if your 4 Official Scores are all in the high-600s or low-700s, then you probably do NOT need to retake the GMAT again. At least one of those Scores would almost certainly help to solidify your overall application profile, so you could comfortably apply to any of the Schools that you're interested in.

Depending on the Schools that you plan to apply to, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. There's a Forum full of those Experts here:

Did you purchase the Enhanced Score Report for any of your Official GMATs. While the ESR doesn’t provide a lot of information, there are usually a few data points that we can use to define what you should work on to score higher. If you purchase the ESR, then I'll be happy to analyze it for you.

In addition, hen are you planning to apply to Business School and what Schools are you planning to apply to?

Hi Rich, I read through all the ESRs but no help. I already hired a MBA consultant from a top firm.

Applying to HSW + CBS + Booth

My score is somewhere 720 - 740 but I believe I have the potential to get a 780 (if you combine my top quant and top verbal from each exam); do you think its worth it to take it 2 more times; not sure if this will be viewed negatively

Hi happygoluck,

If you have scored around 730 with a high Quant Scaled Score, then you can comfortably apply to any Business Schools that interest you. So if the question is ultimately "do you 'need' to retest?", then the answer is NO. As to whether sending all of these Scores to a School would be 'viewed negatively' or not, that's really a question for an Admissions Expert. All things considered, your time might be better spent working on other aspects of your Application than continuing to study for the GMAT.
