Hi Sans101,

If you reinstate your first score, your second one will remain canceled. In other words, your second score will not be visible to schools.

Hi Sans101,

Since you are ultimately asking Admissions questions, you would likely find it beneficial to speak with an Admissions Expert about your overall profile and plans. Those Experts should be able to answer your Admissions questions and help define the specific areas of your profile that could use some improvement (and the more time that you have to act on that advice, the better). There's a Forum full of those Experts here:

https://gmatclub.com/forum/ask-admissio ... tants-124/

Can you go into a bit more detail about the 'issues' that you faced during your 2nd Official GMAT? I ask because if Pearson offered you a discounted retest, then something 'disruptive' must have happened during your Exam. However, if it's not a free retest, then there might be some debate as to how serious an issue it was (and that might not be enough to explain a V19). If you do choose to retest - and you want to score a lot higher than 500 - then some specific Verbal study would likely be necessary before you took your 3rd attempt.

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

"If you choose to cancel your score:

It will not be sent to any of the schools you selected."


and

"Exams Taken at a Test Center: If a score is reinstated, your Official Score Report will be sent to the initial list of schools that you selected on test day. You cannot modify the list. You will, however, be able to be able to view the list of schools receiving your reinstated score prior to confirming the reinstatement."

-from the mba website

Might be worth checking out the website of the school you mentioned or contacting them directly for more insight.

All the best.
