bsd,

I cannot believe that the split you got gives a 720. That is a full 3 points more than mine, So at the least you should have got a 730.

I dont know what to suggest because you already mentioned that your choice of school in the US wanted a better score from you last year. But whichever way you decide to go - retake or apply again - i wish you good luck !

BSD, you have grounds to get an audit of your score...this is the first i have seen where a 48 42 split got you 720..if anything its at least 730...

is it me or is there a grade inflation in verbal????
