So what is the current logic from folks on the new GMAT vs current GMAT? I got a 700(41V, 44Q, 6AWA) when I took it in July but the low quant score probably really hurt me this application round. I plan to retake the test to pull up that score. Knowing myself and what I've seen on the MBA.com website I think the new Integrated Reasoning section is one I would do pretty well on. I'm not applying again until next Fall so I have time but I'm not sure if I should retake now with a known test or wait until summer for the new one?

So nobody has an opinion or thoughts on the GMAT changing this year?

Some wise person has said that A known devil is better than a unknown one...but if you happen to know the unknown one (integrated reasoning) well and you have time for studies in ur schedule during the later months, nothing stops you from giving the test in new format... :) ..but if u have less time to study and u already have much to improve in quant, then why burden urself unnecessary with integrated reasoning.
That's my 2 cents.

Wow, a 700 is still an awesome score! :)

I am currently in the same boat as you. I am not applying until fall, but I've decided to retest in mid-May before the format changes. I also scored a 6 on my AWA, and I figured, since I did well on that section, why risk the unfamiliar and possibly a lower score? However, the 6 you received on the AWA also strongly suggests that you're excellent at writing, so the new section may not phase you one bit.

You have until June 5th to study and retest. If your schedule does not allow you sufficient time to get studying done to fully prepare, then I would suggest waiting until the new test comes around. Otherwise, I would go with what you know! :) Just my two cents...

It will take some time for IR to get consistent and accurate scoring (few months tops) as there will be NO data on it for actual scores. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Take the test when you feel you are best prepared. Don't worry about IR.
